一名海军陆战队退伍军人在北卡罗来纳州南港一处滨水酒吧发生枪击事件，导致三人死亡、多人受伤后，被控多项谋杀和谋杀未遂罪名。
事件发生在周六晚上9:30左右，地点是南港滨水区一家名为American Fish Company的热门酒吧。目击者称，一名男子乘坐一艘小船靠近酒吧，并在户外甲板上向聚集的顾客开火，随后逃离现场。
嫌疑人被确认是来自北卡罗来纳州橡树岛的40岁男子奈杰尔·埃奇尔（Nigel Edge），约30分钟后，美国海岸警卫队在橡树岛的一个公共船坡道上将其拘留，当时他正在装载船只。埃奇尔被控三项一级谋杀罪和五项一级谋杀未遂罪。
南港警察局长托德·科林（Todd Coring）将此次袭击描述为“有针对性的枪击”，由一名“孤狼”枪手实施。
埃奇尔曾于2003年9月至2009年6月在美国海军陆战队服役近六年，期间晋升为中士，并因2005年和2006年参与伊拉克自由行动时受伤而获得紫心勋章。
枪击动机仍在调查中。埃奇尔预计将于周一下午首次出庭。
