She said Barnes came into the house, got a firearm and went to the carport. The police report states the wife said Strickland came to their home, after which she heard cussing, then a gunshot.
Strickland was found in the carport with a small gunshot in the chest. In the report, Barnes said the victim kept coming toward him, so he shot him. His bail is set at $500,000. Bar- nes is scheduled for a July 2nd court appearance.
