Gregory Lynn Battee Jr., 21, was shot to death inside his north Amarillo home at 900 N. Hayden St. on March 30, 2017. Police found him around 2:15 a.m. after responding to a call at the residence. Neighbors remembered Battee as a cool, young guy and a father of two whose death shocked the block.

Investigators say Battee was killed during an aggravated robbery. Two men, Samuel Eugene Wilson and Charles Lynn Pruitt, were indicted on murder charges by a Potter County Grand Jury in May 2017; both turned themselves in to the Amarillo Police Department on April 1, 2017. Reports note the firearm used in the shooting was never recovered. The community’s grief centered on Battee’s kindness and the fact he left behind two children.

If anyone knew Battee, his movements that night, or has information about the weapon, please come forward.
