On January 9, 2026 at approximately 11:10 p.m., an on-duty officer of the Mooresville Metropolitan Police Department was operating a marked patrol vehicle eastbound on East Harrison Street in Mooresville when it collided with a pedestrian standing in the roadway. The pedestrian, later identified by the Morgan County Coroner as 23-year-old Nicholas Alexander Horning, sustained critical injuries.

The Mooresville Metropolitan Police Department initiated an internal review to determine whether the officer’s conduct and vehicle operation complied with department policy and applicable statutes.
