Greensboro Shooting on Joseph McNeil Avenue Leaves One Seriously Injured

Officers with the Greensboro Police Department found a victim with life-threatening injuries after responding to the 2100 block of Joseph McNeil Avenue around 12:40 p.m. Sunday, police said. Local TV station WFMY reported, “One person is suffering from life-threatening injuries following a Sunday afternoon shooting in the 2100 block of Joseph McNeil Avenue in Greensboro, police said.”

WXII 12 News quoted police saying the victim was “fighting for their life after a shooting,” and described the initial response at the scene. The reports indicate officers located the wounded person when they arrived at the Joseph McNeil Avenue address; investigators have not released additional scene details such as shell casings, number of shots fired, or whether there were other victims.

WXII noted that “Police have not released information about a suspect or what led to the shooting,” and WFMY added, “There is no suspect information at this time and details are limited.” Greensboro police have not released the victim’s name, age, or gender in the initial notices filed with local media.

The investigation remains active. WXII’s coverage relayed police instructions: “The investigation is ongoing.
