Morris Foster, 39, a Black male, was found shot to death in southeast Charlotte during a midday double homicide that unfolded around noon on Wednesday, July 2, 2025, at an apartment complex in the 7300 block of Pebblestone Drive off East Independence Boulevard. First responders pronounced two people dead at the scene; the other victim was identified in local reporting as 39-year-old Tanether Campbell.
A funeral notice and obituary later confirmed Foster’s age and that he died on July 2, with services held in Charlotte the following week.
Police described a chaotic but active scene and said at the time that detectives were not looking for any suspects, a detail that suggested there was no threat to the public in the immediate aftermath. CMPD’s same-day media release recorded the location and opened a homicide investigation; subsequent community crime logs aligned with the department’s report number and time window. Despite multiple media summaries and memorial listings naming Foster and Campbell as the two people killed, officials did not announce any arrests, and no suspect search was publicized in the days following.
Additional coverage in community outlets and victim memorial sites reiterated that Foster was lost to gun violence in Charlotte and listed Campbell as the second person killed. None of these sources reported an arrest or identified a suspect, and there have been no CMPD follow-up releases indicating that charges were filed in connection with this case. As of the latest available reports, the investigation remains open without an announced suspect in custody.
