On January 29, 2023, just before 3:00 a.m., a shooting at Southside Johnny’s, a gentleman’s club at 6400 West Market Street in Greensboro, left multiple people wounded and resulted in the death of 36-year-old Cedric Cantrell Monroe. Police found several victims with gunshot wounds; six others were injured, four treated and released and two hospitalized in stable condition. Investigators say the shooting followed a fight inside the club that escalated into gunfire.

On February 6, 2023, authorities arrested 26-year-old Dasean Aaron Hunter of Winston-Salem and charged him with second-degree murder, four counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to inflict serious injury, and possession of a firearm by a felon; Hunter was held without bond in the Forsyth County jail. City officials also inspected Southside Johnny’s; the owner agreed to temporarily close and work with city departments on safety improvements.

If anyone was at the club that night or has information about the fight that led to the shooting, please come forward.
