Mark Daniel Leshikar, a 33-year-old Sergeant First Class in the U.S. Army, was fatally shot on March 21, 2018, in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The shooting occurred outside a private residence near Fort Bragg where Leshikar and another soldier were staying. The two had an altercation after Leshikar was reportedly kicked out of the house; he later re-entered with the help of a child and allegedly went after the other soldier with a screwdriver. The other soldier shot Leshikar, and the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office found Leshikar dead at the scene. No charges were filed against the shooter.

Leshikar’s family and friends recall him as a dedicated soldier and a loving father. The case has been investigated but, as reported, there have been no arrests or litigation. Does anyone have information about the circumstances that led to this confrontation or knew Leshikar and can help fill in missing details?
