Five days after a Manteo police officer fatally shot a resident, the district attorney released a statement that the shooting was “tragic” but “lawful,” meaning he will not file charges against the officer. The SBI investigation remains ongoing.

The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation on Monday afternoon released the name of the officer with the Manteo Police Department who was involved in the fatal officer-involved shooting on Mother Vineyard Road last Thursday.

A Manteo police officer discharged their firearm after being “confronted by an armed subject” on Thursday afternoon, and the latter died at the scene, according to a press release from the Dare County Sheriff’s Office.

The Kill Devil Hills Police Department on Tuesday arrested two local 17-year-olds in connection with the death of Zane Thomas Hughes, 19, from a fatal shooting at Avalon Pier in Kill Devil Hills in July.

A grand jury on Monday morning indicted a Kill Devil Hills teen with one count of first-degree murder and with one count of assault with a deadly weapon with the intent to kill inflicting serious injury following the July 31 shooting at Avalon Pier in Kill Devil Hills.

A Kill Devil Hills teen is being charged as an adult with two felony charges, one of which is first-degree murder, in connection with Thursday’s fatal shooting at Avalon Pier, according to the district attorney.
