In the soft divide between Monday night and Tuesday morning, Tykese Warren, 23, a male from Greensboro, sat in a parked vehicle on the 1000 block of Terrell Drive in High Point with 19-year-old Shawn D. Zimmerman Jr. when gunfire tore through the quiet street just after 12:30 a.m. on June 10, 2025. Officers arrived to find both men shot multiple times; Zimmerman was pronounced dead at the scene, while Tykese Warren, 23, male, was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition.
The week that followed carried the weight of vigil lights and unanswered questions. Tykese Warren, 23, male, fought for several days before he died at the hospital on Sunday, June 15, 2025, becoming the second victim of the same shooting. The High Point Police Department marked the loss in an update, noting that this case counted among the city’s early homicides of the year.
Detectives pieced together a scene centered on a driveway, a car stilled by violence, and a clock that had barely crossed into a new day. Tykese Warren, 23, male, and Zimmerman had been found inside that vehicle, both struck repeatedly, a detail authorities emphasized as they appealed to the public for tips. The department’s notice confirmed the timeline and location while underscoring the urgency of community help.
Investigators said the case remained open. As of the June 16 police update, no arrests had been made, and no suspects were identified publicly. The appeal for information—direct lines to the Violent Crimes Unit and to Crime Stoppers—stood as the lone path forward authorities offered, a stark reminder of a story still missing its final names.
