On the evening of Tuesday, January 16, the Halifax County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call regarding a missing 10-year-old child at a home located in the 2000 block of Beaverdam Road, just outside Enfield, North Carolina.
Upon arriving at the scene, deputies were informed that the victim’s mother had discovered her child’s lifeless body in the backyard. As per the sheriff’s office report, the deceased child had suffered multiple stab wounds.
