*****UPDATE*****

Mr. Aparicio has been located.

*****UPDATE*****

Pedro Aparicio was last seen at his residence in Elizabeth City around 9:00 PM on November 17th. Although he is an adult and not legally required to check in or remain accountable to anyone, it is unusual that he has not returned home and has not reported to work since he was last seen.

Family and coworkers have been unable to contact him, and concerns for his welfare are still present.

The Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office shares the same concern for his safety as his parents do. However, there has been no discovery or indication of any criminal activity.

The Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office is continuing to work with Pedro Aparicio's family to confirm he is in a safe place.

***Missing Person***

Pedro Aparicio was last seen on Horseshoe Road in Elizabeth City, NC at around 9:00 p.m. on November 17, 2025. Aparicio is a 23-year-old Hispanic male, standing 5’4” and weighing 150 lbs. Aparicio is employed in the Hampton Roads area and was due at work on Tuesday, but never arrived. Since Monday evening, Aparicio’s cellphone has not been activated, and he has not been in contact with his family. If anyone has any information regarding the whereabouts of Pedro Aparicio, please contact the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office at (252)-338-2191.

The Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office is issuing an important warning to the community about a new variation of the ongoing jury duty scam that has been targeting local residents. In this latest version, the scammer identifies themselves as “Deputy Daniel Fogg” and uses the phone number 252-376-1993 to contact potential victims.

The caller claims that you must return their call by 5:00 p.m. or an arrest warrant will be issued in your name. This is entirely false. The Sheriff's Office does not operate in this manner, and no legitimate deputy will ever threaten arrest over the phone or demand an immediate call-back.

We want to strongly remind the public that this is a scam, and we urge everyone to stay vigilant. Do not share personal information, send money, or engage with anyone making similar threats. If you receive a call like this, hang up immediately and report it to the Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office.

Protect yourself and your neighbors—please help spread the word to prevent others from becoming victims of this or any similar scam.

To our local veterans here in Pasquotank County, we thank you for your example of strength and patriotism. Your service continues to inspire us all.

Happy Veterans Day from Sheriff Tommy S. Wooten, II and the men and women of the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office.

The Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office would like to alert the community ONCE AGAIN about a recent increase in reports of a scam targeting residents.

In this scheme, callers are impersonating law enforcement or court officials, falsely claiming that the recipient has missed jury duty and now faces immediate arrest unless a payment is made. These scammers often sound convincing, using real names of deputies, judges, or court staff, and may even spoof official phone numbers to appear legitimate.

Please be aware — the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office will never call you to demand money, threaten arrest, or request payment of any kind related to jury service. If you miss jury duty, you will receive an official notice by mail or through the Clerk of Court, not a threatening phone call.

We strongly urge residents not to provide any personal information, banking details, or payment over the phone to anyone claiming to represent law enforcement. If you receive a suspicious call of this nature, hang up immediately and contact the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office at (252)338-2191 to verify or report the incident.

Your awareness is your best defense — please share this information with family, friends, and neighbors, especially those who may be more vulnerable to these types of scams.

Stay cautious and informed. For more details, check the link below to the North Carolina Administrative Offices of the Courts page, which provides information about this scam affecting our area.

We are heartbroken to learn of the tragic loss of Officer Roger Smith of the WakeMed Campus Police Department, who was killed in the line of duty yesterday. Officer Smith was responding to a disturbance call at the WakeMed facility in Garner, North Carolina, when he was fatally shot while courageously protecting patients, staff, and visitors.

Officer Smith’s dedication to duty and his commitment to safeguarding others exemplify the highest ideals of law enforcement service. His bravery and selflessness will never be forgotten.

Our deepest condolences go out to Officer Smith’s family, friends, and his brothers and sisters in law enforcement as they face this unimaginable loss. The entire Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office stands with the WakeMed Police Department and the Garner community during this time of mourning.

Please keep Officer Smith’s loved ones and colleagues in your thoughts and prayers as they grieve and honor his memory.
