Shortly before midnight, prosecutors said the woman’s ex-boyfriend, Nash, showed up, kicked in the door, hit the woman and began to search the house for Schwinn.

911 call 

Schwinn called 911 and hid in the attic, waiting for police to arrive. Nearly 10 minutes into that phone call, a gunshot was heard followed by the sound of a person falling to the ground.
