Multiple 2:51 a.m. gunshot calls sent Burlington police to the 200 block of North Logan Street, then to 212 Adams Street, where investigators found evidence of a physical altercation and gunfire tied to a domestic-related disturbance.

That probe led police to charge 19-year-old Zaymion Robinson with assault with a deadly weapon, discharging a firearm within city limits, and injury to personal property. Robinson was booked into the Alamance County Jail on a $1,500 secured bond and later released.

Local reporting said a vehicle was struck by gunfire, but property was the only thing damaged. Even without reported injuries, the case triggered a significant response across two Burlington street locations and a felony charging decision that reflects how quickly a late-night domestic conflict can spill into the neighborhood around North Logan Street and Adams Street.

The investigation also led to a second arrest the next day. On May 17, Burlington police and the Alamance County Sheriff’s Office arrested 33-year-old Dalvin Tyner on warrants charging him with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, communicating threats, and going armed to the terror of the public. Tyner was transported to the Alamance County Jail with no authorized bond.

Crime Stoppers gave out tip-line numbers for the case, telling anyone with information to call Burlington police at 336-229-3500 or Alamance County-Wide Crimestoppers at 336-229-7100. The case has drawn attention because it combined overnight gunfire, a reported domestic dispute, and the kind of street-level risk that leaves nearby residents and businesses waiting for answers about what happened and whether more charges could follow.
