A Sunday evening in Pembroke ended in fatal violence when 31-year-old Cicara Chantel James was found shot to death at a home on the 6000 block of Pembroke-Oak Grove Road. Deputies and EMS responded after a 911 call at about 8 p.m. and discovered Cicara deceased from a gunshot wound.

A 34-year-old man who lived at the house, Anthony Moore, was located sitting on the porch. He and Cicara were cohabitants and parents; their children were in the home during the incident. Moore was taken into custody at the scene, allegedly admitted to the shooting, and was lodged in the Christian County Jail on charges of first-degree murder and first-degree wanton endangerment. The Christian County Sheriff’s Department is continuing its investigation.

If anyone knew Cicara, Anthony Moore, or was in the area that evening, any information could help the ongoing inquiry.
