Cal Lock stopped at Wong's Wok on New Year's Eve, where he worked with his daughter, and was shot in the parking lot. He wanted to check his schedule when, family said, an argument with a co-worker erupted.
"(Cal) was just saying, ‘I’m old enough to be your father. I don’t get into them type of rumors around here,'" Latrisha Lock said.

Lock's wife said the woman her husband was arguing with called a man who came to the restaurant armed with a gun. The argument moved outside.
"My husband told my daughter to go hide behind the truck, so she wouldn't get hit in the crossfire, and he ended up taking the bullets," said Latrisha Lock.
Cal Lock was shot twice in the head and rushed to the hospital. He was declared brain-dead days later.

The 51-year-old father is remembered as a loving father and husband, someone who was religious and loved fishing and barbecuing.
"He wasn’t out here gang banging or thugging or nothing like that. He was a family man," Latasha Carter, the victim's sister-in-law, said.
