POLICE MAKE ARREST in North Carolina road rage killing of Lancaster County woman

Police in North Carolina have arrested a man in connection with a road rage attack on I-95 that killed a Lancaster County mother of six.

The suspect has been identified as Dejywan Floyd, 29, of Lumberton, N.C.

Robeson County Sheriff Burnis Wilkins said Floyd was arrested at 12:38 a.m. Thursday at the Parkview Apartments. He is charged with first-degree murder and discharging a weapon into an occupied property in connection with the death of Julie Eberly, 47, of Manheim, Lancaster County.

“The arrest of Floyd is the direct result of law enforcement agencies and the community working together. The surveillance footage provided to investigators by dozens of cooperating businesses and residents were critical elements in the tracking of Floyd’s path in Cumberland County prior to the shooting and throughout Lumberton and beyond after the shooting. Regardless of the circumstances, no one deserved to be murdered while traveling our nation’s highways. I am proud of the work put forth by the law enforcement agencies that came together as one to bring this case to a successful conclusion,” said Wilkins.

Road rage killing

Julie Eberly, a mother of six from Manheim, Lancaster County, was shot and killed in a road rage attack on I-95 on March 25. Eberly and her husband were on their way to Hilton Head to celebrate their anniversary.

The Robeson County Sheriff’s Office released a picture of a silver Chevy Malibu they say was involved. Police think that Floyd fired shots from that vehicle into the car Eberly was in with her husband, killing her. Eberly’s husband was not injured.

Police say the Eberly’s car got close to the Malibu while merging. Floyd then got beside them, rolled down his window and fired several shots, according to police.
