SALISBURY, N.C. — A makeshift memorial lined a Salisbury neighborhood on Tuesday, less than one week after a man was shot and killed during a home break-in on Beard Street.
Sebastian Rankin Jr. was shot and later died at the hospital, police said.
Salisbury police charged Namyous Dejhmariek’kali Jackson with first-degree murder.
He shot and killed Rankin on Thursday inside this home, police said.

Police arrived at the home close to 4 p.m. in response to a breaking-and-entering in progress.
Multiple people inside the house were hurt and said it was a domestic incident that turned into an assault, police said.
Three people were inside, including two men. A female was also hurt and taken to a hospital.
