Another woman, Spratt’s 32-year-old girlfriend, had been shot in the face and had locked herself in a bedroom with her two sons, 6 and 8 years old. She is expected to survive and the children were uninjured and are in the care of a family member. Spratt is not their father.Â
Spratt had been living with the 32-year-old woman but the two were splitting up, and Spratt was at the apartment with his sister gathering his belongings, police said. When he overheard the two women talking about him, he pulled a gun, shot both of them and fled.Â
