Eugene W. Pierce, a student at NC A&T State University, was found dead behind the counter of the Circle K at 2303 N. Church St. on December 8, 1989 at 2:30 pm. Pierce died of a gunshot wound during a robbery at the store; a customer was also wounded in the same incident. A Governor’s reward of $5,000 has been offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible.

Does anyone remember that afternoon or have information about who was involved at the Circle K on December 8, 1989?
