This week marks the four-year anniversary of the murder of James Guy “Pete” Wells.  On October 13, 2005 Pete Wells was killed in an apparent robbery attempt as he returned to his vehicle after purchasing food at Bamboo Garden Restaurant, located next to Quality Foods on Hwy. 28 By-Pass in Anderson, SC.  To this date this case remains unsolved.
 
There is still a $40,000 reward being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction(s) of the person(s) responsible for Mr. Wells’ death.  The reward is made possible by Crime Stoppers, along with several private donors.  Mr. Wells' family recently contacted Fairway Outdoor Advertising, who graciously offered to put up a billboard with the reward information.  The billboard features a photograph of Mr. Wells, along with the reward information and photographs of a hat and necklace/charm that are thought to have been left behind by the perpetrator(s).  The billboard is located on Hwy. 28 By-Pass at Flowe Rd.
