Arrests made in breaking and entering incident on E Bright Street
On October 31, 2024, officers from C-Squad responded to a reported breaking and entering at a residence in the 300 block of East Bright Street. Upon arrival, officers observed two men, Bryan Bouie (35, of Kinston) and Allen Campbell (39, of Kinston), arguing on the front porch.
During the investigation, officers noticed a laceration on Campbell’s head and immediately called for EMS assistance. Video evidence was later provided showing both individuals engaged in a physical altercation, with Bouie seen brandishing a knife. Bouie was arrested and charged with Assault with a Deadly Weapon. He was transported to the Lenoir County Jail and received a secured bond.
As the investigation continued, officers learned that Campbell had been seen in possession of a firearm during the altercation. Additional video evidence confirmed that Campbell, a convicted felon, was unlawfully carrying a firearm—an offense prohibited by law.
Further investigation revealed that Campbell was also involved in the original breaking and entering. Officers obtained and executed a search warrant at Campbell’s residence, where they recovered a BB gun, a shotgun, and a quantity of cocaine.
Campbell was arrested and charged with the following offenses:
Breaking and Entering to Terrorize or Injure
Assault on a Female
Possession of a Firearm by a Felon
Possession with Intent to Sell or Distribute (PWISD) Schedule II Controlled Substance
Felony Possession of Cocaine
