Halifax County Sheriff Wes Tripp said this evening the sheriff's obtained warrants after receiving information Tony Russell Hill Jr. of Enfield was possibly on base at Fort Bragg where he has family.

Military police seized evidence and turned it over to the sheriff's office, Tripp said. Hill was returned to Halifax County and placed in jail without the opportunity for bond on a charge of murder. He has a July 22 court date.

“It was great assistance,” the sheriff said of working with military police. “We were very pleased with the relationship we had.”

Hill, 19, marks the third person in custody in the case, which Tripp said last week appears to be gang-related, although the victim in the case did not have gang ties.

Investigators with the sheriff's office continue to look for Dexter Devon Taylor Jr. Tripp said detectives are getting information on several locations where he might be, but declined to elaborate.

Warrants have been obtained for Taylor's arrest.

Tripp said there are still more arrests to be made in the case, although he declined to say how many.

“Detectives continue to work diligently in arresting those responsible for this murder, and there will be more individuals arrested,” he said in a statement. “We will travel as far as necessary to effect arrests. I encourage the citizens of Enfield to continue to provide information.”

Anyone with information is encouraged to call the sheriff's office at 252-583-8201 or Crimestoppers at 252-583-4444.
