This afternoon at approximately 1:30, officers were dispatched to the area of 1207 Dabney Drive in reference to a domestic situation involving a firearm. When officers arrived, the suspect, Rosalyn Henderson (age 44) had already left, but the victim, Antione Watson (age 48), was still on the scene and described the incident to officers.
Mr. Watson stated this had been an ongoing dispute in the county, at or around his home on Carey Chapel Rd, for the past several weeks. He stated he had obtained domestic protection orders against Ms. Henderson on the ninth of this month.
Mr. Watson and other witnesses stated that Ms. Henderson was waiting at the business and discharged a firearm at him. No one was struck by the discharging of the firearm and the suspect, Ms. Henderson, immediately fled from the scene.
Investigators took out felony warrants on Ms. Henderson for the incident and they worked with the Vance County Sheriff’s Office to locate her. The Vance County Sheriff’s Office found Ms. Henderson on Brunswick Lane, outside of Middleburg, and also recovered the suspected firearm used in this incident.
Ms. Henderson is currently being interviewed on this matter and the county’s previous occurrence(s). Bond information will be forthcoming.
