CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A family is still searching for answers almost two years after a man was found shot to death inside a car.
Everette Lynn’s body was found at about 3 a.m. on Nov. 5, 2016, after the car he was in crashed into a concrete barrier on East Independence Boulevard near the Briar Creek Road Exit.

“The void will never be filled because he's gone,” Everette Lynn’s father, Willie Lynn, said.
Willie Lynn is a retired police officer. His son was 43 years old when he was killed.
Everette Lynn’s sister, Leah Lynn, just wants to know what happened that night.
“Just like anybody else, just like all the other hundreds of unsolved cases and mothers who don’t know what happened to their child,” Leah Lynn said. “We just want to know what happened to Everette. His last moment.”
Willie Lynn answered the front door when police officers came to his home.
“You know that at 2 to 3 o’clock in the morning when police officers rang your doorbell, something is wrong,” Willie Lynn said.
There is a $15,000 reward in this case for information that could lead to an arrest.
