Dear Mr. Blanton,
We are in receipt of your April 6, 2021 correspondence seeking a police incident report concerning the shooting of Jaquyn Light. We have nothing to provide in that regard, since all documents arising out of a criminal investigation are confidential and "are not public records" by virtue of N.C.G.S. § 132-1.4(a).
Respectfully,
Sergeant B. T. Edwards
