James Scott Willcoxson, 60, was shot to death on the evening of March 24, 2017, inside a home on the 300 block of S. Villa Ave in Fresno, California. Willcoxson had married Carol Holaday in May 2016 and had recently moved to Fresno; he worked as a salesman for Colonial Van Lines and was remembered for his laugh and smile.

The shooter was identified as Kyle Holaday, 26, James’s stepson. Deputies found that Kyle had opened fire on family and friends, killing James, wounding four others — including his mother, two adult women, and a 5-month-old girl — and killing the family dog. Kyle was apprehended about a mile from the scene after being struck by a pickup truck while trying to flee and was taken to a hospital in stable condition. Authorities had not determined a clear motive at the time.

Does anyone have information about the night of March 24, 2017, or knew James and his family that could help clarify what happened?
