Carrol Willis Griffin, a 30-year-old African American male, was tragically shot to death on July 11, 2015, in Monroe, North Carolina. The incident occurred around 1 a.m. in the 500 block of East Hudson Street. Griffin was found near a vehicle in a parking area, having sustained fatal gunshot wounds.
Griffin, a father of nine children, was known to be very active in their lives.
Despite the efforts of law enforcement, no arrests have been made in connection with his murder, and police have not identified any suspects. The case remains unsolved, and authorities continue to seek information from the public to aid in their investigation.
The community held a vigil for Griffin, reflecting the impact of his loss on family and friends. This incident marked the second homicide in Monroe that year, following the shooting death of 28-year-old Steven Smith in May. Both cases remain open, with police urging anyone with information to come forward.
