A man wanted for murdering his wife may be in Eastern North Carolina.

The U.S. Marshals Carolinas Regional Fugitive Task Force is looking for Donald Hodges, who also uses the names Tyrone Evans and Unique Hodges, after the shooting death of his wife in May 2022 in Conover.

There is a $10,000 reward for information that leads to his arrest.

Kinston police said he was seen recently in Kinston, and frequents the Lunch Box and has been seen near the 700 block of Thompson St. almost daily.

Hodges is a 6'6" black man and weighs about 273 pounds. He’s muscular and bald and usually has a beard. He has “OG” tattooed n his chest, a dog on his right shoulder, “TNT Hardcore” on his left shoulder and “Love Shirley Nancy” and a Masonic symbol on his left arm.

Annette is originally a Midwest gal, born and raised in Michigan, but with career stops in many surrounding states, the Pacific Northwest, and various parts of the southeast. An award-winning journalist and mother of four, Annette moved to eastern North Carolina in 2019 to be closer to family – in particular, her two young grandchildren. It’s possible that a -27 day with a -68 windchill in Minnesota may have also played a role in that decision. In her spare time, Annette does a lot of kiddo cuddling, reading, and producing the coolest Halloween costumes anyone has ever seen. She has also worked as a diversity and inclusion facilitator serving school districts and large corporations. It’s the people that make this beautiful area special, and she wants to share those stories that touch the hearts of others.
