Ricky Jay Wright, a 54-year-old man from Raleigh, North Carolina, was shot and later died of his wounds after being found in a parking lot on Lehman Lane in the early morning hours of April 24, 2016. Police were called to Cantwell Court at about 4:15 a.m.; Wright was taken to WakeMed Hospital and succumbed to his injuries.

Four days later authorities arrested 22-year-old Michael Jarrel Griffis at a residence in the 600 block of East Garner Road in Wake County and charged him with murder. The Raleigh Police Department released an image of Wright and appealed to the public for information, and Crime Stoppers offered cash rewards for anonymous tips.

Are there details about that neighborhood or the early-morning timeline that anyone can add, or did anyone witness activity around Cantwell Court or Lehman Lane that night?
