Timothy Dale Arrington, a 26-year-old African American male, was tragically killed on April 30, 2017, in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. The incident occurred around 9 PM at 428 St. Paul St. Arrington was in a vehicle with two others in the driveway of the residence when another vehicle pulled up. The occupant of the second vehicle fired shots at Arrington as he exited his vehicle.
Arrington was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other two individuals in the vehicle were unharmed.
The case has been under investigation since the incident. During an appeal case in Nash County Superior Court related to an unrelated shooting, testimony was documented that implicates a suspect in Arrington's murder. However, the case remains unsolved, and no arrests have been made to date. The investigation is ongoing, and law enforcement officials believe that an arrest is imminent.
Efforts to seek justice for Timothy Arrington have been ongoing, with organizations like Team Cold Case offering rewards of up to $15,000 for information leading to an arrest. The community and law enforcement continue to work together to bring closure to Arrington's family and friends.
