Kenneth Edward Scott Jr., a 36-year-old African American man, was shot and killed on December 19, 2021, in Raleigh, North Carolina. The shooting happened around 10 a.m. in the 3900 block of Haresnipe Court near Leesville Road, an area near the Pickwick Village subdivision and across from Capital Oaks Retirement Resort.

Raleigh police responded and later that day arrested 25-year-old Vance Louis Winston IV, charging him with Scott’s murder; Winston IV was held at the Wake County Detention Center. Police did not release a motive and investigators continued to gather information about the circumstances of the shooting.

Scott was survived by his children Mackenzie Scott, Kamron Scott, Kaleb Scott, and Kiyon Scott; his parents Kenneth Scott Sr. and Valerie Harris; and his sister Kenyata Scott. Does anyone have information about what happened that morning or knew Kenneth and can help shed light on the case?
