Sheriff's Office: Masked Men Kill Wilson County Restaurant Owner

A $5,000 reward was offered Tuesday for information to help apprehend and convict the people who gunned down a local restaurant owner over the weekend.

The Town of Stantonsburg Development Corporation posted the reward in connection with the slaying of Song Ni. Crime Stoppers of Wilson also will pay up to $1,000 for information in the case.

Ni, 34, was killed in a home invasion and robbery late Saturday. He owned Jin Jin Chinese Restaurant on Moyton Avenue and lived across the street from the restaurant.

Two employees were assaulted by three masked men with guns as the walked over to Ni's house after closing the restaurant Saturday night, authorities said.

The men stole $700 from one of the employees and shot Ni before fleeing, authorities said.

Anyone with any information in the case is asked to call the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office at 252-237-2118.

Jokers Wild II, Agreed but tell me some of you, since I'm not really familiar with the NC Law. If you carry a fire arm and some crazy thug tries to rob you and you manage to shoot him/her and later dies, will you get convicted?

What a crying shame to be gunned down over 700 dollars! One weeks worth of work could get them 700 dollars had the thugs wanted to work for something, but I guess that is not easy enough.. I agree with the other posters that we need to Inform and Protect oourselves! I recommend anyone that is able to purchase a firearm and take the CCW Course. I carry all the time, not because I am looking for trouble, but because if it finds me and my family we already know how to respond, and hopefully if it goes according to plan you will be reading about the deceased thug on WRAL, and how much of a troubled life he had!

I hope the people responsible are caught and brought to justice! I am so tired of these punks who think they are entitled to take, take, take from hard-working folks. I am deeply sorry for the family and friends of this man.

this is why im trying to put up my site, its for all and I mean all of us,,, we are sick and tired of the killings and dont know who to blame before its called a cold case,,, please visit www.leroyjernigan.com and at end of site there is a petition, please sign it and spread the word.. thanks

It is uncalled for except by the thieves who did it.

I hope they catch them soon. We are all getting really sick of this brutality.

It should be vigilante justice .... for all.
