Dennis Bradley Jr., 20, was at the residence in the 700 block of Maple Street when shots were fired from a vehicle occupied by Raheem Scott and Khevon Weaver, Chief James Avens said.

Scott surrendered to Weldon police today at the urging of family members and was jailed on $500,000 secured bond. He awaits a January 3 court date.

Avens said Bradley is not a permanent resident of the house which was shot into. He does have ties to the Weldon and Roanoke Rapids areas.

He is wanted for three counts of attempted murder as well as shooting into an occupied dwelling and damage to property.

Avens said the shots Bradley reportedly fired struck a house and a vehicle which had nothing to do with the drive-by.

It was not immediately clear why Bradley is wanted on three attempted murder counts. Avens declined immediate comment.

The drive-by occurred shortly after 6 p.m. and none of the five people inside were injured, Avens said earlier today.

The case is not believed to be tied to one last Thursday in the 700 block of Elm Street in which a nearly 2-year-old child died. That case remains under investigation.

About 20 shots were fired in the Tuesday night shooting, where windows and doors were damaged, the chief said.

Police continue to look for Weaver, 20, who frequents the Weldon and Garysburg areas.

Anyone with information is encouraged to call Crimestoppers at 252-583-4444 or the police department at 252-536-3136.
