The quiet of a Goldsboro neighborhood was shattered last night when a domestic dispute turned deadly, leaving two men shot dead inside a residential home. Goldsboro Police Department responded to a call around 10:50 p.m. on the 1100 block of Edgerton Street, CBS 17 reports. Officers discovered the bodies of 45-year-old Rondray Darnell Gooding and 42-year-old Antrell Lamond Carlton, both from Goldsboro, with evidence suggesting they died from gunshot wounds.
Details around the tragic event remain scanty, but it's known that a female resident was able to quickly flee the scene unharmed and promptly call 911, a course of action that likely ensured her safety. While police work to piece together precisely what occurred, the community grapples with the loss of two of its members. Investigations are ongoing and we are in the early stages, said a Goldsboro police spokesperson, in a statement provided to WRAL. No arrest has been made at this time, and authorities have not released any information regarding suspects.
According to WITN, police are investigating the shooting and have not disclosed if they believe this was an isolated incident or if there is any danger to the public. Neighbors expressed shock and concern, with one local resident stating that this is usually a peaceful area, it's unsettling to have something like this happen right on our doorstep.
Goldsboro authorities are encouraging anyone with information to come forward to aid the investigation. The Goldsboro Police Department is actively reaching out to residents to gather statements and potential evidence that may shine a light on the events leading up to the fatalities. We're asking anyone who might have seen or heard anything to please get in touch, urged the spokesperson in the statement obtained by CBS 17. The identity of the female caller has also not been disclosed, but she is believed to be cooperating with the police as the only known eyewitness.
