Omaha family seeking justice for man killed at I-29 Speedway in August

OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - An Omaha father shared his painful plea after losing his son.

"When are we going to put the guns down? Isn't it time to put them down?" said Charles William Sr.

"We ended up getting a phone call saying that our son had been shot," Williams Sr. told 6 News. "We don't know the reason, we don't know nothing."

Iowa State Patrol and Omaha Police are working to solve the case. Until then, the Williams family is hopeful someone will come forward.

"It could be the smallest piece of information that might help us to find out who did this to our kid, to our child," Williams Sr. said.

Charles Jr. was known as a fun-loving and ambitious man. He was working toward starting his own trucking business. Most importantly, he a devoted father to his son Charles III and his daughter Janiyah.

"I miss him so much. I love him," said Charles Williams III.

Faith is helping the Williams family cope in the midst of tragedy, along with their newest addition, a dog named Goldie. But they won't rest until justice is served.

"It just consumes you every day, every hour, every minute almost. It's really hard to deal with," Williams said.
