Man Wanted After Allegedly Shooting Child, Dad After Basketball Rolled Into Yard
A manhunt is underway in North Carolina after a man reportedly shot a 6-year-old girl and her father after a basketball rolled into his yard.
Robert Louis Singletary, 24, is considered armed and dangerous after fleeing the scene of the shooting, which occurred just before 8 p.m. Tuesday in Gastonia, just west of Charlotte, police said.
“This is an individual with a violent past, and just from the actions yesterday that he is suspected of taking, obviously this is a dangerous individual,” Gaston County Communications Director Adam Gaub said at a press conference with police Wednesday.
Neighbors at the scene said the multiple shots of gunfire were in response to children playing ball.
“They were playing basketball and a ball rolled into his yard and they went to go and get it,” Jonathan Robertson, who described Singletary as being known for yelling at local children, told Charlotte station WBTV. “It was just crazy.”
“He came out with a gun, he started shooting,” the wounded girl recalled of the events to Queen City News. “Hope my daddy is okay.”
The child and the man were seriously wounded in the gunfire while a woman, identified in local reports as the wounded girl’s mother, was grazed by a bullet. A third adult was also shot at but not injured, police said.
The girl has since been discharged from a hospital while the wounded man remained hospitalized Thursday afternoon in serious condition. There were no updates on the search for Singletary, Gaub told HuffPost Thursday.
Singletary is wanted on four counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury, and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon.
The shooting appears to be just the latest incident in which a young person was shot for seemingly being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Singletary was already awaiting trial on felony charges from a December 2022 incident in which he allegedly beat his girlfriend in the head with a mini-sledgehammer and forbade her from leaving his apartment until she had cleaned up the evidence, according to WSOC-TVQuote:

I'm not going to pursue this further with you as you aren't capable of following very basic lines of thought.

& apologies to the group reading for drawing this out
Well, looks like shooter Alec Baldwin gets to walk.
The line of “shooters” that have gotten “to walk” is long. As far as injustice goes Baldwin is far down the list.
Another patriot saving our country from fascism and authoritative government, thank your for your service and reasoned use of 2A just like the founders would have wanted!Quote:

Where does this idea that you can and should shoot first and ask questions later come from

Wouldn’t a preemptive strike be more effective for overall family (yours) protection? I mean, why wait for the neighbor to open fire?Quote:

Technically assault.
The fear is real, those things can get ya.

Oh to be clear I was suggesting strike first in a shock and awe fashion so that no effective fire can be returned.Quote:
