Marlon Wade, 40, was fatally shot on July 10, 2016, during an altercation on the 2900 block of Freedom Drive in Lumberton, North Carolina. He was pronounced dead at the scene. A 17-year-old, Jaquan Bethea, was wounded in the same incident and taken to an undisclosed hospital.

Seventeen-year-old Alkwuan Moore was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder; he was taken into custody without bond and held at the Robeson County jail. Detectives Charles Keenum and Walter Lee Hinson led the investigation.

Wade is survived by his daughter Aaliyah Davis, several stepchildren, siblings, and other relatives; he was remembered for his love of sports and for bringing joy to those around him. Does anyone in Lumberton have information about the events on Freedom Drive that night?
