James Noah Bennefield Jr., 46, of Cullman, Alabama, was found shot to death in the driveway of a home in the East Lake neighborhood of Birmingham on the morning of April 20, 2016. Bennefield, a commercial truck driver and U.S. Army veteran, was identified at the scene after a resident discovered his body.

Investigators say two teenagers arranged to meet Bennefield under the pretense of a sale but intended to rob him; during the robbery he was shot and left in the driveway, and the suspects fled in his vehicle. Birmingham police arrested the two youths and charged them with capital murder. Family members described Bennefield as a beloved husband, son, and father.

If anyone knew Bennefield, the circumstances of the planned meeting that morning, or saw his vehicle after the shooting, please share what you know.
