On June 5, 2023, at approximately 4:11 p.m., 61-year-old Michael Robert Feldman was fatally shot in the stairwell of the Holly Crest Apartments on Holly Crest Lane in Huntersville, North Carolina. Feldman, a former professor of electrical engineering at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and the co-founder and CEO of T1V, a Charlotte-based software company specializing in large touchscreen experiences, was pronounced dead at the scene by emergency medical personnel.
Witnesses reported seeing a man fleeing the area immediately after the shooting. Shortly thereafter, Huntersville police received multiple calls about a man exhibiting erratic behavior in a nearby residential community. Officers located and arrested 30-year-old Randy Gonzales-Mugaburu near the intersection of Greenfarm Road and Greenpond Lane. He was subsequently charged with first-degree murder in connection with Feldman's death.
Feldman's untimely death has left a profound impact on both his family and the local community. His daughter, Morgan Feldman, described him as a compassionate individual who always saw the best in people and lived his life to the fullest. As the investigation continues, authorities have not disclosed any potential motives or the nature of the relationship, if any, between Feldman and Gonzales-Mugaburu. Community members are encouraged to provide any additional information that may assist in the ongoing investigation.
