Livis Charles Owens Jr, described in official reports as a 46-year-old African American male, was found fatally shot in Delco, North Carolina on April 21, 2014. Deputies discovered him at 631 Evergreen Road just before midnight, about an hour after officers had been in the area responding to a report of gunfire. The wound entered near his right shoulder, passed through his body and exited around his left shoulder; an autopsy in Raleigh confirmed a single gunshot wound as the cause of death.

Investigators and prosecutors walked the scene and planned to decide on criminal charges the following week; authorities were considering whether to bring charges and the investigation was ongoing. An obituary for Owens listed his age as 42 and noted funeral services on April 28, 2014, at New Townsend Temple Pentecostal with burial in the church cemetery.

Does anyone in the Delco area have information that could help clarify what happened that night?
