LILLINGTON, N.C. — A Lillington man who was shot Sunday night during an attempted break-in at a local home also is suspected of a shooting outside a Bunnlevel home, authorities said Monday.

Raquan Moore, 21, faces six counts of shooting into an occupied vehicle and one count each of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury, first-degree burglary and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Moore was listed as stable at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill after getting shot at 100 Loraine Lane, authorities said. The homeowner called 911 at about 9:45 p.m. to report that he had shot sometime trying to break into his home.

Investigators with the Harnett County Sheriff's Office determined that Moore also was tied to a 9 p.m. shooting at 67 Ervin McNeil St. in Bunnlevel.

Robert Earl Gunn, 40, of Lillington, was shot four times outside the home and was listed in critical condition at WakeMed in Raleigh, authorities said.

A vehicle outside the home had also been shot at, but the person inside wasn't hurt, authorities said.

Both shootings remain under investigation.
