NC: Gunfight with Squatter in Carteret County


The shooting happened around 8:30 a.m. at a vacant home on Nine Foot Road, outside of Newport.

Deputies say a man was legally conducting business at the property when he was confronted by Blevins, who was apparently squatting at the home.

After a verbal dispute, deputies say the squatter fired multiple shots at the victim.

The victim made his way back to his vehicle, deputies say, and got his own gun and returned fire in self-defense.
