A resident at a home on Chason Road in Lumberton, North Carolina shot and killed a man who authorities say after a long on-going conflict, presented a threat to those inside.
According to information from Maj. Anthony Thompson with the RCSO, the shooting happened at a residence located in the 1900 block of Chason Road around 7:10 p.m. James Purdie, 43, of Lumber Bridge, died as a result.
Several witnesses told authorities that Purdie drove his vehicle onto the front yard of a Chason Road residence, then exited the vehicle holding a gun, Thompson said.
A person at the residence reportedly saw him as a threat and fired at the victim, killing him.
