Suspect arrested in Durham drive-by shooting

Dante Lamar Terrell, 21, of Crest Street, is charged with murder and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.

Two men were walking on the 2800 block of Crest Street Monday afternoon when multiple shots were fired from a passing car, police said.

Nigel Scarlett, 25, of Webb Circle, was pronounced dead at the scene, and Kevin Maurice Davis, 26, of Price Avenue, was taken to Duke University Hospital.

A witness told WRAL News that a child getting off a school bus in the neighborhood found a handgun about three blocks from the shooting scene.

Police were awaiting tests results on the gun to confirm whether it was used in the shooting. Investigators have declined to comment on a possible motive.
