"When SWAT made entry, and after arresting Moore, they discovered a deceased female, believed to be an adult, on the floor in the apartment in an advanced stage of decomposition," Montgomery County Police Chief Marcus Jones told reporters during a press briefing Friday. Police were not aware of anything amiss at that apartment, or of any missing persons from that location, the chief said.
"We did observe Moore pick up items from in front of the counter and began throwing them at the clerk," Jones said. Moore allegedly then reached over the counter and fired again multiple times, before grabbing the iced tea bottle and leaving the store, said Jones, who called the incident"very troubling."
