Arrested

Town of Hillsborough issued the following announcement on May 30.

Arrests have been made for all six suspects involved in a shooting earlier this month in a parking lot at Gateway Village Apartments in southern Hillsborough. The final suspect was arrested today, May 24.

Investigation by the Hillsborough Police Department determined the shooting on May 2 was the result of a drug transaction that turned into an armed robbery. Two people were injured in the incident that occurred at about 6:30 p.m. in which shots were fired at several people sitting in a car near the 200 building at Gateway Village.

The final suspect — Kellie Kincy, 24, of Greensboro — was arrested today and charged with robbery with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery with a dangerous weapon, and possession of a firearm by a felon. Kincy is being held under $75,000 secured bond.
