Three injured when ex-boyfriend tries to shoot woman, co-worker tries to protect her.
Her co-worker, 38-year-old Anthony David, was also shot while trying to protect her when he pulled a weapon and fired back at Terrance Kerr.
All three were struck by gunfire in the home on Drypoint Lane in Cumberland County around 3:15 a.m.
Stancil and David were taken to a hospital for treatment; Kerr was more seriously injured. He was listed in critical condition.Kerr has been charged with attempted murder — among other charges.
Stancil’s mother, sisters and aunt said they were shocked, but not surprised. They told WRAL News they’ve been worried about Stancil for some time, and that this is a terrible case of domestic violence.
Wanda Williams, her mother, said Stancil had taken out a restraining order and that she was afraid to stay home alone, so she had David come home with her for protection.
Kerr used his key to get into the apartment and that’s when the shooting started.
“The next thing I got a text saying, ‘I’ve been shot,'” said Williams. “I said, ‘what?’ and she said, ‘He shot me and help!'”Williams said she started calling her daughter, but couldn’t get through.
