JOHNSTON COUNTY – The Johnston County Sheriff’s Office has announced a convenience store clerk will not face any criminal charges for the fatal shooting of a man inside the business.
Weylon Scott Brown, age 46, of Stevens Chapel Road, Smithfield was fatally shot November 3, 2024 inside the Shop N Go, at 13569 NC 39, Zebulon, in northern Johnston County.
The decision not to charge the clerk was made after the sheriff’s office presented evidence to the Johnston County District Attorney.
Brown reportedly tried to break into several cars parked outside, threatened a customer in the parking lot with mace, then physically fought with the clerk inside the business prior to the deadly shooting.
The clerk remained at the scene and cooperated with the investigation.
In 2016, a clerk was shot and killed during a robbery at the same location.
Good for the clerk!!!! One less savage on the streets.
He deserves a metal!!
I might go to that store and give that clerk a reward.
He no longer works at this store. He shot the guy in the back as he was running out of the door. He should be charged. I’ve seen the video personally.
Good!
