A fight over a man’s wife has left one man dead and the husband in jail on a murder charge.

Onslow County deputies say the shooting happened around 10:00 p.m. Wednesday at the Harbor Point RV community in Sneads Ferry.

Sheriff Hans Miller says when neighbors heard the shooting they saw John Price Jr. try to leave and held him at gunpoint until deputies arrived.

Inside the home, deputies found 54-year-old Wayne Curry dead from apparent gunshot wounds.

Deputies say their investigation shows that Price had shot Curry in a dispute over the suspect’s estranged wife, who was living with Curry. The sheriff characterized it as a love triangle.

The 62-year-old Price was charged with murder and is being held on no bond.
