Carmen Abrams, 68, was killed on April 5, 1976, in a murder-robbery at the Easy Way Food Store in the Hammock area north of Flagler Beach, Florida. She, a Hispanic woman, was pronounced dead at the scene from a gunshot wound to the temple. Her husband, Furman Joe Abrams, was critically injured and taken to Shands Teaching Hospital in Gainesville.

Witnesses and investigators described the attackers as a man and a woman in their twenties driving a dark-colored station wagon. Law enforcement from Flagler and St. Johns counties mounted roadblocks and an intensive manhunt; a couple was later questioned and released for lack of evidence. The store reportedly yielded no more than $50 to the robbers.

Does anyone have memories of the Hammock area or the Easy Way Food Store from that period or information that could add detail to what happened that night?
