According to AP:
The mother of former Chicago Bulls player Eddy Curry's 3-year-old son and and her infant daughter were shot and killed in her South Loop apartment, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Chicago police are reportedly looking for a "known acquaintance" of the woman related to the murders.
Curry, who plays for the New York Knicks, was at a game in Philadelphia Saturday. A Knicks source close to Curry described him as “distraught” on hearing the news of his former girlfriend’s death and what his son witnessed, according to The New York Daily News.
Nova Henry, 24, and her 9-month-old daughter Ava Henry, were found around 6 p.m. by a Henry's mother,who contacted police. Officers found Henry and Curry's son in the apartment, according to the Tribune.
Immediate family members did not comment but a man indentifying himself as Henry's uncle say they believe they know the who the gunman is.
"She had a stalker boyfriend," he said. "And she had a restraining order against him and she was trying to avoid all this."
Curry has had on-going tragedy in his personal life since being traded to the Knicks in 2005.
Last week, his former driver sued him for sexual harassment and racial discrimination, accusing Curry of unwanted advances, pointing a gun at him and making "abusive, anti-Semitic epithets."
In 2007, Curry's family was robbed in their suburban Chicago home by masked men who took cash and jewelry after duct taping the family in the house.
