'Dangerous' Lenoir County shooting suspect Ryan Keith Everett arrested in Graham

LA GRANGE, N.C. (WTVD) -- A man deemed "extremely dangerous" to the community by Lenoir County Sheriff Jackie Rogers has been captured in Alamance County.

The Lenoir County Sheriff's Office said that Ryan Keith Everett, 38, of La Grange, was arrested by police in Graham on Tuesday afternoon.

Law enforcement officers had been looking for Everett since Thursday when he allegedly shot two people and stole two firearms during a robbery in Greene County.

Everett was holed up at a hotel in Graham and reportedly tried to pass some counterfeit money, Graham Police said. Officers responded Tuesday afternoon to the Days Inn on Truby Drive and determined that the man suspected of passing counterfeit bills gave a false name.

The man fled on foot but officers arrested him shortly after. He was then identified as Everett.

Everett was booked into the Alamance County Detention Center and held without bond.

He will be taken back to Lenoir County, where he will face two counts of attempted murder and six counts of shooting into an occupied vehicle. Everett will also face multiple charges in Alamance County, Greene County and Wayne County.

A woman identified as Stacey Mitchell, 33, of Kinston, who was said to be with Everett and reported missing by her family has not yet been found, the sheriff's office said.

Mitchell was last seen Wednesday with Everett.

Anyone who has information on her whereabouts is asked to contact the Lenoir County Sheriff's Office at (252) 559-6118.
