William Lee Locklear, 41, of Greensboro, North Carolina, was shot and killed on August 12, 2016. He was found at the top of the driveway leading to a vacant home on Forest Brook Drive with gunshot wounds to the head and hand; the incident was later described as a robbery gone wrong.

Locklear’s family remembered him as mechanically inclined and fond of fishing. He is survived by his wife Brenda Locklear, a son William Locklear Jr., a daughter Briana Nicole Locklear, and other relatives. In January 2022 Greensboro police arrested Tamarius Tyshe Merritt, 22, of Greensboro, and Javonn Dequan Riddick, 24, of Winston-Salem, charging both with first-degree murder and robbery with a dangerous weapon; Merritt was held at the Guilford County Jail and Riddick at the Greensville Correctional Center in Virginia.

Are there details about Locklear’s last known movements or people he was with that anyone can share?
