Raleigh, North Carolina — On October 13, 2022, members of the Raleigh Police Department (RPD) responded to a mass shooting in the Hedingham neighborhood located in Northeastern Raleigh. Five (5) individuals died, and two (2) others sustained injuries during this incident. Over the course of several hours, a search ensued for the suspected shooter that included an exchange of gunfire between the shooter and multiple officers. At approximately 6:42 p.m., officers were able to locate the suspect, 15-year-old Austin Thompson, in an area with two outbuildings near McConnell Oliver Drive. As officers were attempting to search the area, Thompson fired multiple shots at the officers from one of the buildings.

At approximately 6:44 p.m., Raleigh Police Officer Casey Clark, 33, fell to the ground after sustaining a gunshot wound in the right knee. Multiple officers, including two officers with the Raleigh Police Department, returned fire. Officers deployed cover fire allowing Officer Clark to be pulled to safety so that he could begin receiving treatment for his injuries. Officer Clark, suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound from the suspect. Preliminary results indicate that approximately 23 rounds were fired by RPD officers. Those rounds were fired in the direction of the outbuilding where Thompson fired upon officers.

Following the exchange of gunfire, officers established a perimeter to keep Thompson contained in the outbuilding for the safety of the nearby community due to concerns about the nature of weapons he possessed to include multiple firearms, as well as possible hand grenades as reported in a 911 call. At approximately 9:34 p.m., after continued reassessment of the threat Thompson posed, SEU officers advanced towards the outbuilding. Thompson was located inside lying on the ground and appeared to be suffering from a single gunshot wound. At the time, he was wearing camouflage clothing and a backpack, and a handgun was in his waistband.

The backpack contained various items, including several types of shotgun/rifle ammunition. A sheath for a large knife was found clipped to his belt, and a large hunting knife was found at the front of the outbuilding. A shotgun and shotgun shells were lying on the ground near him. No other weapons were found. Officers secured Thompson in handcuffs at approximately 9:36 p.m. EMS personnel rendered medical attention to Thompson and transported him to the hospital. He has since been released from the hospital and moved to a juvenile detention facility. One of Austin Thompson’s five victims on Thursday night was his own 16-year-old brother, James Thompson.

The names of the victims involved in the mass shooting:

Deceased:
Nicole Connors, 52
Susan Karnatz, 49
Mary Marshall, 35

  1. Good time to reiterate, in a dangerous situation dispersion is important and always give direction and distance right away.

  2. An area with trees everywhere and they ignore the opportunity for cover and concealment. Somebody should have moved up to a tree and covered while another guy cleared the near shed.

  3. The cops are all wondering if they will be able unload. A round comes whizzing by and 15 cops all grin and unload.

  4. Wouldn’t be surprised if the boy has connections to the CIA just like almost every other shooter

  5. This is horrible … ANOTHER shooting just TODAY by a teenager..oh my heart is crying
    ..his brother too all these people ..what makes a boy do this why WHY ..IM A Mother of a a son ..I don't understand this tragedy…..Jesus please help us..

  6. took it alive
    we do not pay you to save them
    how dare it leave the scene alive
    you are cowards and should be removed from service

  7. I was good with everything until we used a gun mounted light to illuminate the downed officer for medical. SMH. Fast recovery for the injured officer.
