Man kills girlfriend, commits suicide


A Belmont man killed his 28-year-old girlfriend and then shot himself late Friday, Gaston County Police said.

Amanda Caskey died of apparent gunshot wounds at the Castleton Court apartment complex, police said. Her boyfriend, 30-year-old Terry Campbell, was taken to Gaston Memorial Hospital where he died a short time later. The two lived together, and the motive is believed to be domestic related, police said.

It's the second domestic-related homicide in Gaston County in the past month.
