Deputies said the incident started before 1:30 Tuesday morning on Cy Lane.
Colten Jeffrey Rogers, 22, was shot and killed by William Collin Allen, 19, according to Wake County Sheriff's Office.
"I think they were acquaintances of each other, but I'm not sure if they were relatives or not," Major Greg Newkirk said.
Newkirk said an argument led to the shooting, but it's unclear what started the argument.
Allen was arrested and charged with murder.
