Michael Graham Cause of Death Pending as NC Authorities Continue Investigation

 The Robeson County Sheriff’s Office Homicide Division is actively investigating the death of Michael Graham, 30, of Red Springs, after his body was discovered earlier this week following a missing person report. The case has prompted a coordinated investigation involving multiple law enforcement agencies as authorities work to determine what led to his death.

On Monday, February 9, 2026, deputies responded to a report of a suspicious vehicle located at a cemetery on Fodiesville Road in Shannon. When law enforcement arrived at the scene, they discovered Graham deceased. Officials have not yet released details regarding the cause or manner of death, pending further investigation.

According to investigators, Graham was last seen during the early morning hours of Sunday, February 8, 2026, at approximately 12:40 a.m. He was reportedly driving a 2016 charcoal gray Ford Fusion near Old Lowery Road in Red Springs. At some point after that sighting, he was reported missing, leading to the events that culminated in Monday’s discovery.

The Sheriff’s Office confirmed that the Red Springs Police Department is assisting in the investigation. In addition, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is providing support, signaling the seriousness and complexity of the case. Authorities have not disclosed what specific evidence or circumstances led to federal involvement but emphasized that the investigation remains ongoing.

Investigators are urging residents in the areas of Old Lowery Road and Fodiesville Road to review any available surveillance or security camera footage from late Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Even minor details—such as unfamiliar vehicles, unusual activity, or movements during that timeframe—could prove critical in establishing a timeline and identifying any persons of interest.

Law enforcement officials are asking anyone with information related to Michael Graham’s disappearance or death to come forward immediately. Community cooperation is often essential in cases like this, and authorities stress that even information that may seem insignificant could help move the investigation forward.

At this time, no arrests have been announced, and investigators have not indicated whether foul play is suspected, though the involvement of the Homicide Division confirms the case is being treated with urgency.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office at 910-671-3100.

As the investigation continues, the Red Springs community is left mourning the loss of a 30-year-old man whose death has raised serious questions. Authorities say more details will be released as they become available.
