NEWTON, N.C. – On Saturday, October 12, 2023 at 4:53 p.m. deputies with the Catawba County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of a shooting at the intersection of Island Point Road and North View Harbour Drive.
When the deputies arrived they discovered an adult male deceased from what appeared to be gunshot wounds.
Eyewitnesses informed deputies that another man shot the victim after both stopped and exited their vehicles. Eyewitnesses also reported that the shooter fired multiple rounds into the victim’s vehicle during this incident. The victim’s vehicle was occupied at that time by his three children, ages 13, 11 and two. Those victims were not injured.
Eyewitnesses provided deputies with vehicle and suspect descriptions. Those descriptions led deputies to a residence in the 9000 block of Island Point Road. At that residence deputies located and arrested Terrell Eugene Giddens.
Giddens,75, has been charged with one count of Murder and three counts of Attempted First Degree Murder. Giddens is being held with no bond and has a first appearance in Catawba County District Court on October 14, 2024.
