Police are working to determine the motive in the shooting and identify a suspect.

On Saturday, 18-year-old Anthony McClain was fatally shot after hearing an argument outside his family’s barbershop in a shopping center off West Fayetteville Road, Channel 2 Action News reported.

The teenager’s mother, Norma Huff, said she thinks he was walking outside the shop to call her and report the commotion. Instead, she got a phone call from another barber telling her to come quickly after “something tragic had happened in the shop,” Huff told the news station.

No arrests have been announced in McClain’s death.
