The murderers hired to kill Banquo are not named. When the time comes to do the deed, a third murderer joins them. Some speculation has taken place as to who this third murderer might be. Some even suggest that his name might be Macbeth, but this would not make sense since Macbeth seems surprised at the feast when the murderer reports that "Fleance is scaped"
Macbeth does not reveal his plan to kill Banquo and Fleance (Banquo's son) to Lady Macbeth.
Macbeth does not kill Banquo himself possibly because Banquo was his best friend and he could not bear to do it. Furthermore, in not committing the murder itself, he avoids being suspected of the crime.
The three assassins that were hired by Macbeth kill Banquo as he is walking with his son to the palace for a dinner that Macbeth invited him to.
