Salisbury Police have released tapes of 911 calls received after the fatal shooting of a Felicia Farmer.

Antone Holmes, 21, called 911 from his cell phone, outside the motel. Holmes, Gregory Hunter, 20, and 14-year-old Lekedra Horton were in Room 316 at the Ramada with Farmer.

Horton said the three used the cell phone because their hotel phone was not working.

In one call, Holmes told a dispatcher:

Holmes: “Yeah, uh, emergency here at Ramada Inn. Room 323, yo. Somebody just got shot. I heard a gunshot next door, yo. Hurry up, yo. And the peoples, they ran up out the drain, yo. You outta here, yo. Bye.”

The police responded to Room 323, not realizing that Horton was a few rooms away. They left and did not find her until a Ramada employee called.

Dispatcher: “Salisbury Police, where’s the emergency?”

Ramada employee: “Yes, I need someone to come, uh, back to the Ramada. We found a girl in Room 316 with her head busted open.”

Dispatcher: “316?”

Employee: “Yes.”

Dispatcher: “OK.”

Employee: “Thank you.”

Dispatcher: “Is the person that done it still there?”

Employee: “I’m not sure. I had just rented the room to a person in 316. Because the police had already came up here. I had got a call, and I had made a key for them for a different room because someone had called. But they didn’t find anyone. So when I just rented the room to 316, we found a girl in there, in the bed, with her head busted open. And the room was supposed to be rented, I don’t know how she got in there.”

Dispatcher: “OK, we’ll get somebody out there.”

Caller: “Thank you.”

Ramada Manager Kay Patel has said previously that Room 316 was rented by error when employees changed from second to third shift.

The police did locate Farmer on the bed in Room 316, shot once in the face. Farmer may have been in the room 45 minutes to an hour before police found her.

Farmer died Saturday morning after her family decided to remove her from life support.

Hunter turned himself in to police the day after the shooting. He was charged with murder and placed in the Rowan County Detention Center without bond.

A third call came in after Hunter, Holmes and Horton left the hotel room in a 1982 Buick.

On Old Concord Road, they were traveling 75 mph when the Buick slammed into the back of a car driven by Dennis Reid of East Spencer, according to reports.

Reid called 911 to report the incident and the three youths ran from the vehicle.

Horton said they left the motel to go get an ambulance. After the accident occurred, Hunter ran through the woods, and Horton and Holmes got a ride back to the motel to make sure Farmer had been found.

Police say the .380-caliber handgun used to shoot Farmer belonged to Holmes, and he was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, because the Buick belongs to his mother.
