The Guilford County Sheriff’s Office is again asking for the public’s help in an ongoing homicide investigation stemming from a fatal shooting in McLeansville in October of 2024.
In a press release issued Thursday, Feb. 12, Guilford County Sheriff Danny Rogers said the case remains active and ongoing.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded on Oct. 21, 2024, at about 6 a.m. to a 911 call reporting an “unknown problem, man down” at 4925 Harvest Road in McLeansville.
When deputies arrived at the scene, they located 16-year-old David White Jr. (pictured above_ deceased from multiple gunshot wounds.
The Sheriff’s Office first reported the incident on the day it occurred and has now refocused on the case and is asking the public for help.
In that original Oct. 21, 2024, release, District 2 deputies with the Sheriff’s Office responded to the same address after receiving the 911 call.
Deputies located the deceased male individual suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
At that time, the Sheriff’s Office described the case as an active homicide investigation and said there was no further information to share.
More than a year later, authorities emphasized this week that the investigation is still underway.
It’s not clear if any new developments or changes resulted in this new call for help from area residents who may know something about the homicide.
Anyone with information related to the investigation is encouraged to contact Detective J.M. Allen at 336-641-2799 or call Guilford County Crime Stoppers at 336-373-1000.
The Sheriff’s Office hasn’t released any additional details regarding the circumstances of the shooting.
