Press Release:On Wednesday, October 7th, 2020 at approximately 8:43PM, Officers of the Henderson Police Department were dispatched to the 600 block of E. Andrews Avenue to investigate gunfire.
When they arrived, they located Alveante (Al) Markeith Holden (18), of Vance County, suffering from a gunshot wound to the upper torso. Mr. Holden was found seated inside a vehicle he had been operating earlier, in the parking lot of “The Wash House”, a laundry mate. Mr. Holden had succumbed to his injuries prior to our arrival.
Evidence was found in and around “The Wash House” and several individuals were spoken with and interviewed. Through information gathered, Alveante Holden is a victim of a narcotics transaction gone awry. The suspect is a white male and is believed to be the sole shooter in the incident. He was accompanied by another white male, and a white female.
We are seeking the assistance of our community and the people of the surrounding area to solve this case. We are currently looking for an extended cab, white, full-size, truck with a high stance, possibly a lift kit. The make of the vehicle is not clear, but is possibly a GMC or Chevrolet. The only additional descriptor we have is brush/limbs protruding from the cargo area.
We are pleading with the community for anyone with information about this case to contact us immediately. A cash reward of up to $2,000 is offered through Henderson-Vance Crime Stoppers (252- 492-1925 or P3 app). Please call us at 252-438-4141 or contact us through Facebook or Instagram.
