Mark Freedman, 63, was shot and killed outside his restaurant, Mark’s Restaurant, in Greensboro, North Carolina, on November 3, 2020. He had just closed for the night and was found bleeding in his car by his girlfriend of nearly 15 years; the killing took place on election night.

Freedman was a longtime restaurateur in the Triad, having owned and operated three restaurants over about 40 years. He was also active in local charity work, volunteering with A Simple Gesture and preparing Thanksgiving meals for decades. His sister, Robin Freedman of Washington State, has stayed in close contact with the Greensboro Police Department and spoken publicly about finding her brother’s killer. The community created the Mark Angel Foundation, which has raised more than $100,000 for local causes.

Surveillance released by Greensboro/Guilford Crime Stoppers shows a person of medium to stocky build and short to medium height running from behind a fence and pointing a gun into Freedman’s car. A cash reward of up to $50,000 has been offered for information leading to an arrest, but no suspects have been apprehended; the Greensboro Police Department continues to investigate and has used advanced forensic technology in the case.
