Daniel Cortez Morrison was 21 when he was shot and killed on July 5, 2014, in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Around 3:30 p.m. that Saturday, Morrison and another person picked up a passenger at a convenience store at the corner of Cumberland Road and Wingate Road. The passenger tried to rob them and, during the attempted robbery, shot Morrison on Tolgate Road near Old Spears Road.

Morrison was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center but died of his injuries. Court records and the police investigation classify the death as a homicide. Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective M. Hardin or Crimestoppers to help bring the perpetrator to justice.

Does anyone have information about that afternoon or the person who was picked up at the convenience store?
