Ashley Erin Scoggins was taken to the hospital, where she died shortly after, according to Police.
In the case, investigators identified Timothy Prescott Parson, 37, the woman’s ex-boyfriend, as the suspect.
According to Police, Parson assaulted her inside the store before fleeing in a dark gray Nissan Sentra with the North Carolina license plate JFT-4361.
According to the Kings Mountain Police Department, Parson was arrested on Thursday during a traffic stop near Dixon School Road and Interstate 85.
Tracey Marie Harris, 42, a passenger, was also arrested on suspicion of obstructing justice.
Mugshots were not made available to Parson or Harris right away. Parson was last seen driving the exact Nissan that fled the crime scene.
According to the Shelby Star, Parson appeared in court on Friday. He was released on no bond and a $50,000 bond for assault on a female.
Harris’ bond was increased to $75,000 from $50,000. According to the Shelby Star, Parson cried the entire time he was in court.
Ken Lemon of Channel 9 spoke with Scoggins’ grandmother, who said Scoggins was a mother of two. She stated that Parson is the Father of her 3-year-old daughter.
She claimed they all lived in Gastonia until Scoggins abducted the children and fled in 2021, telling a judge she had been abused.
Lemon discovered Scoggins had been separated from Parson for a year and a half, and she recently told a judge that he had followed her and threatened to kill her.
