MEMPHIS, Tenn. — More than a week after a man was found shot to death in his car in Raleigh, a co-worker has been charged with his death.

Investigators said Alexavier Williamson, 20, was the last person seen with Cleon Osby on the morning of April 19. They said Williamson admitted to shooting Osby in a wooded area near Rolling Woods Drive and Scenic Highway.

Police said Williamson and Osby worked at the Checkers in the 600 block of North Germantown Parkway, and surveillance video showed them leaving in Osby’s Pontiac G3 at around 2:30 a.m.

Osby’s body was discovered several hours later inside the Pontiac. Police said he died from a gunshot wound to his left side.

Detectives have not said what led up to the shooting. Williamson was booked in the Shelby County Jail on Sunday and is facing a charge of second-degree murder.

Williamson is scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.
