DURHAM, NC – Law enforcement officials closed off sections of Wall Street and North Holman Street in East Durham on Wednesday as part of an ongoing police investigation, prompting questions from local residents about the nature of the operation.
Active Search in East Durham
According to reports from CBS 17, Durham police searched homes in the area as part of their investigation. While authorities have not yet provided full details about the operation, sources indicate that it may be connected to a suspect apprehended in connection with the recent shooting of a state trooper in Orange County.
Last Tuesday, Durham police arrested Juwana Juwana, along with a juvenile suspect who had been on the run following the trooper shooting. Investigators have not confirmed whether Wednesday’s search is directly tied to this case, but the timing suggests a possible link.
Awaiting Further Information
The Durham Police Department has not yet released a statement clarifying the specific reason for the heavy police presence in East Durham.
“This is a developing story, and we are waiting for more information from law enforcement,” said a local CBS 17 reporter at the scene.
