ALAMANCE COUNTY, N.C. — Someone who called 911 was panicked as they witnessed a shootout on April 8 outside of their Alamance County home.

“The neighbors are shooting, and the bullets are, like, hitting over here in our trailer,” the caller told the dispatcher.

PAST COVERAGE:

Union Academy teacher Barney Harris, his brother-in-law, Steven Alexander Stewart, and members of Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel were involved in the shootout at a trailer park in Green Level. Harris was killed.

Harris and Stewart allegedly went to a mobile home to steal money and drugs from the cartel’s stash house, which led to the deadly shooting.

“I just heard a bunch of gunshots outside my house, and I mean a lot of gunshots,” a caller told emergency dispatch.
