Overview
- Surveillance footage shows Mustafa waiting on a bench and then approaching LaToya Lucas as she neared the Wilson County Courthouse before shooting her Monday.
- Mustafa ran several blocks and exchanged gunfire with a Wilson police officer and a county deputy, was shot in the arm, treated at a hospital and taken into custody.
- Lucas remains in critical condition after surgery while the two officers suffered nonlife‑threatening injuries and are reported stable.
- Authorities say the shooting appears tied to a June homicide because Lucas is the sister of a suspect in that killing and Mustafa had publicly marked the earlier victim.
- Mustafa faces attempted first‑degree murder and other weapon and property charges, his first court appearance was scheduled for Tuesday, and investigators are processing the downtown scene with SBI assistance.
