Horton was dressed in all black and wearing a mask while carrying a gun before allegedly killing her.

Baker is charged with first-degree murder, robbery with a dangerous weapon and firearm by felon.

“You will regret what you have done, may God have mercy on your soul. Whether they find you today, tomorrow or three months from now,” Baker’s son, William McClure said following her death. “We will make sure justice is served to the highest degree. Though it won’t bring my mom back, God will have his way with you when your time comes one way or another.”

“It’s another senseless homicide and another loss of life in the Charlotte community and it’s greatly disturbing,” Major Brian Foley said in July.
