An update to a story we ran Thursday morning –
A shooting Wednesday night in Asheville leads to the death of a woman, two
of her children, and the assailant.
Asheville Police officials say 35-year-old Maurice Garner
had previously been in an argument with his girlfriend 32-year-old Erica Smith
at her workplace.
Later, Garner reportedly fatally wounded Smith, her
15-year-old son, and her 13-year-old daughter at their home.
Three other juveniles received non-life threatening
injuries.
Garner’s body was located in a car near the crime scene with
a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Anyone with information about the incident should call
Asheville Police at 828-252-1110 or Buncombe Crimestoppers at 828-255-5050.
Former Catawba County Sheriff’s Office Captain and current
sheriff candidate Jason Reid is under investigation for stalking – that
confirmed by the NC SBI.
A spokesman with the state bureau of investigation says the
agency received a request last August from the Lincoln County
district attorney’s office to investgate an allegation of stalking; that
reportedly occurred in early 2017 in Lincolnton.
Published reports indicate Reid’s former girlfriend
initiated the allegations after she discovered a GPS tracking device on her
vehicle.
A Burke County man is sentenced to five to seven years
Tuesday during Catawba County Superior Court.
34-year-old Jonathan Ray Bennett of Connelly Springs
pleaded guilty to breaking and entering, breaking and entering a motor vehicle
and obtaining property by false pretense.
Bennetts' sentence length was enhanced by prior felony
convictions for larceny in Yancey County (2010), possession of stolen goods and
obtaining property by false pretense in Mitchell County (2004 and 2008).
