22 years ago, on January 6, 2004, 16-year-old Josh Davis from Garner died in what police now call a homicide. Back then, they figured he got hit by a car that sped off, but the case went cold until recently. Garner police just teamed up with the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation after some fresh tips came in. They're digging into every lead, no matter how small, and put out the call for anyone who remembers that night to speak up. Josh was a popular kid in town, and folks have waited decades for answers. The break scenes tied to rumors and old conversations bubbling up now, shaking up the community all over again. Lately, investigators zeroed in on a four-oaks police officer listed as a person of interest. They searched his bins in home on March 31, grabbing an iPhone and laptop based on a tip from his ex-bouse. No charges yet, but he's on Admin leave while the probe rolls on. If you know anything from back then, hit Garner PD at 919-890-731-8 or SBI at 888-624.
