Nicholas Edward Olson, 31, of Palm Beach Gardens, was found dead in a Ford Mustang in West Palm Beach on February 7, 2017, after being fatally shot during a robbery. His cellphone and wallet were missing from the scene. Olson was the son of David Wayne Olson and Bobbie Jo Smith and was described by family as a father of two girls and a long-time South Florida resident.

Investigators linked bullets recovered near Olson’s body to a revolver found in the vehicle of 23-year-old Javon Charles. Charles confessed to robbing Olson near Alpha Street and Mercer Avenue and to shooting him. Charles was charged in connection with the killing and later pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, robbery with a firearm, and being a felon in possession of a weapon, receiving a 35-year prison sentence.

Did anyone in the West Palm Beach area around Alpha Street and Mercer Avenue notice suspicious activity that night or have information about Olson’s last movements?
