Pravinbhai Shanabhai Suthar, a 64-year-old man of Indian descent, was fatally injured after a robbery at the Rodeway Inn and Suites, 3117 Cedar Park Road in Greensboro. On the morning of September 24, 2019, police responded to a commercial robbery around 9:30 a.m. and found Suthar in critical condition. He was taken to hospital and died nearly a week later; his death was investigated as a homicide.

Authorities charged 28-year-old Divine Shakim Wheeler of Greensboro with first-degree murder, kidnapping, possession of a stolen vehicle, and robbery with a dangerous weapon in connection with the incident. Two additional men were later arrested: 21-year-old Quendallas Tyquan Bell, charged with kidnapping, first-degree murder, robbery with firearms or other dangerous weapons, attempted first-degree murder, and conspiracy; and Jimmy Edward Richardson, who faced similar charges.

Anyone who knew Suthar, worked at the Rodeway Inn and Suites, or has information about the robbery and assault is asked to come forward.
