New details on attempted murder at NC Jehovah’s Witnesses church, police offer reward

[Isabella]

Police this week released new details about what they’re calling the attempted murder of a Jehovah’s Witnesses member, who was shot in the parking lot of her Gastonia church.

A $2,500 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest in the Jan. 15 shooting. Part of the reward money, $1,500, was contributed by the woman’s family and another $1,000 comes from Crime Stoppers of Gaston County.

In releasing new details, police said the woman had left a meeting at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses on David Park Road and was in her car in the church parking lot when someone “walked up, fired two shots at her and she was hit.”

Several other members who were outside during the shooting scrambled to safety in the congregation‘s Kingdom Hall, joining other worshipers who “sheltered in place,” Elder John Wray told The Charlotte Observer at the time.

The woman was treated for minor injuries at CaroMont Regional Medical Center in Gastonia, police said. She was back home later that week but was still in a bit of pain, according to Wray.

Police ask anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers of Gaston County at 704-861-8000.

This is at the Kingdom Hall that I and my wife attend.  

We missed that meeting.

It was an attempted carjacking, about 9:15 PM, after the meeting 

Shot was the Congregation Coordinators wife, while she was in her car with her daughter.

Does this in any way dovetail with the other topic you raised?
