The murder charge Wednesday stemmed from the Nov. 20 death of Cody D. Gurley, 21.
Gurley was in a car with Deshaun Mitchell, 24, and another man when a white Jeep Cherokee pulled up beside them near the intersection of Fayetteville and Ramseur streets, according to police.
An occupant of the Jeep fired at least one shot at the Honda the men were in, police said. The Honda ran off the right side of the road near East Main and Elizabeth streets and struck a power pole.
The Jeep pulled up to the Honda, and several more shots were fired, officials said.
Mitchell was hospitalized.
