Darin Greene, a 49-year-old African American man, was tragically killed on the night of March 23, 2014, in Holly Springs, North Carolina. Greene was visiting a friend, Harold Michael Evans, at 1313 New Hill Road when the incident occurred. Just before midnight, Greene was shot and killed, while Evans, a 65-year-old man, was wounded but later treated and released from a local hospital. The crime scene was described as a home set back from the road, suggesting that the attack was not random.
Investigators believe that robbery was the motive behind the shooting and that two or more individuals were involved. The Holly Springs Police Department has responded to the home multiple times over the past three years for various incidents, including domestic disputes, larcenies, and tenant-landlord disagreements. Despite the history of disturbances at the residence, the violent nature of Greene's death shocked his family and the community.
Darin Greene's family, including his older brother Anthony Greene and niece Yolanda Greene, expressed their disbelief and grief over his untimely death. They described Darin as an endearing and close-knit family member. The family has urged anyone with information about the case to come forward and assist the authorities in their investigation.
As of now, no arrests have been made in connection with Darin Greene's murder. The Holly Springs Police Department is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to the resolution of the case. The investigation remains ongoing, and the authorities continue to seek leads to bring justice to Darin Greene and his family.
