Deputies arrested a man after a fatal shooting Monday night.

Terry Barnes, 53, is charged with an open count of murder.

The Onslow County Sheriff's Office says the fatal shooting happened around 7:25 p.m. Monday at a home on Old Maplehurst Road in Jacksonville.

When deputies arrived on scene, they found Tina Meyer, 56, dead from a single gunshot wound.

They say Meyer's boyfriend and father were also on scene.

Barnes is being held without bond in the Onslow County Detention center.

His first court appearance took place this morning in Jacksonville.
