ORANGE COUNTY, N.C. — Editor's note: The video in this story is from an unrelated story about Dorrell Brayboy who was convicted of killing NBA player Chris Paul's grandfather as a teenager.
Orange County deputies said a botched robbery cost a woman her life near Eno Township.
It happened off Tucker's trail around 10:30 p.m. Sunday. Officials said Edward Eugene Snipes, 55, knew Jennifer McFalls, 54, and her son Lakota Franklin, 22.
According to the sheriff's office, Franklin escaped to a neighbor's home and was bleeding heavily from multiple stab wounds. He was taken to Duke University and told first responders to check on his mother.
When they arrived, they found McFalls dead in the entryway to the home. She had been stabbed multiple times and there were signs of a struggle.
Snipes was arrested in Galax, Virginia on Monday.
Law enforcement is still investigating. Call Kyle Borland with the Orange County Sheriff's Office at (919) 245-2915 if you have any information on this case.
