Trayvon Hodge Charged After Alfreda Court Shooting Sends Man to Hospital

Wake County deputies responded early Sunday morning, around 7 a.m. according to multiple reports, to shots fired at a residence on the 3300 block of Alfreda Court near Wendell and located a man who was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, the Wake County Sheriff’s Office said. Deputies arrested 22-year-old Trayvon Hodge and charged him with "assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury" and "robbery with a dangerous weapon," according to ABC11, WRAL and Wake Weekly.

WRAL reported deputies were at the Alfreda Court home, which is off Hodge Road, before 8:30 a.m., and confirmed that shots were fired at the residence. Multiple news outlets, including ABC11 and Wake Weekly, cited approximately 7 a.m. as the time deputies responded; WRAL’s broader timeline did not contradict that window. The event occurred March 8, 2026, with law enforcement activity concentrated in the rural Wendell area of Wake County.

Wake Weekly, citing a Wake County Sheriff’s Office press release, reported that deputies "located an adult male suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. He was transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries." No name, age or treating facility for the injured man has been released by authorities in the available accounts, and outlets noted only the initial transport and condition description.

On-scene observations reported by WRAL’s crew documented a larger law enforcement response: at least six law enforcement vehicles, a K9 unit searching the property, and three people seen in handcuffs. Those observations were reported as WRAL’s eyewitness account; published charging information identifies only Trayvon Hodge as formally charged by Wake County deputies. WRAL said it reached out to the Wendell Police Department and the Wake County Sheriff’s Office for further details about what led to the shooting and whether additional people were injured.

All outlets cited investigators as continuing to work the scene and determine the circumstances. ABC11 summarized the status this way: "This is an ongoing investigation. There is no additional information available at this time." Wake Weekly similarly reported that WCSO investigators are working to establish the sequence of events that led to the shooting and the robbery-related charge.

Public records cited in initial reporting did not include booking details, bond amounts, court dates, or any formal statement identifying additional suspects beyond Hodge. Authorities have not released information on a motive, the alleged robbery’s specifics, or the current medical status of the hospitalized man. WCSO investigators continue to work the case and may release further details as the investigation progresses.
