Request for Assistance - Victim Seriously Injured, Detectives Trying to Locate Witnesses

During the early morning hours of September 30, a male victim, Evan Benjamin Lawrence, 23, walked from the Jackpot Bar at 1303 Hillsborough Street. A short time later, it is believed that the victim was involved in an altercation with an unknown suspect or suspects. The victim received injuries that were potentially life-threatening.

A witness reported seeing two unknown females and one unknown male who appeared to be providing aid to the victim. It is believed these three individuals may have witnessed the events that led to the victim’s injuries. Detectives are attempting to identify these witnesses and need to speak with them about the case.

The victim was transported to Rex Hospital by a privately owned vehicle and remains hospitalized there.
