Heather Carter, 28, disappeared after an early morning shootout at the Zip-N-Mart at 2413 Hope Mills Road in Fayetteville on July 12, 2017. She had left home with 29-year-old friend Ashley Davila to meet Heather’s former husband, Jimmy Lee Proffitt II. Prosecutors say Proffitt opened fire when they arrived; Davila, who was sitting in a vehicle, was shot in the wrist and escaped, but Heather was unable to reach the vehicle and was never seen again. Blood and a single flip-flop were recovered at the scene.

Proffitt, who had a documented history of domestic violence with Heather, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in October 2017. The case has been complicated by the absence of a body and, until recently, the loss of Davila, who was the only person known to have been with Heather that morning.

Does anyone have information about Heather’s movements before the July 12, 2017 shooting or recall seeing her near Hope Mills Road that morning?
