Man Killed, Another Injured in Fayetteville Shootings

Late Saturday night, a man was shot and killed in Fayetteville, with deputies responding to a shots fired call at a residence on Pebble Street. Upon arrival, they found an unresponsive man with a gunshot wound, who was pronounced dead at the scene; his identity has not been disclosed pending family notification. The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident, which is not believed to be random violence. Separately, on Friday night, a driver was shot during a police traffic stop after he allegedly fired at officers, prompting one officer to return fire. The suspect was taken to a local hospital for treatment, while the State Bureau of Investigation is handling the inquiry into the officer-involved shooting. Both incidents have raised concerns, and authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward.
