Police responded to reports of gunshots at about 5:15 p.m., Tuesday, when they found the victims' bodies.

That night, frantic parents waited outside Finley Forest Condominiums, where police were investigating the triple homicide, the Daily Tarheel reports. One mother broke down in tears after she inquired about her daughter and son-in-law, while a father screamed, "It's been hours! Just tell me if he's alive!" Posted by: Fred 2015-02-12 |
