Witnesses shaken after Durham strip mall shootout

Tareka Alston was in a tobacco shop with her infant daughter when broken glass hit her arm.

"Before I walked out I was standing in front...I just felt glass hit my arm, and I'm like, 'Oh my God, somebody's shooting,' so I just pushed her to the back," Alston said.

Shaken after the incident, Alston is just glad her daughter is unharmed.

"If the glass hit my arm I can just imagine if they were standing at a different angle it could have hit my baby," she said.

One of the men involved in the shooting, Jacinto Barr, 33, was shot in the shoulder. He has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession with intent to manufacture, sell or distribute heroin, according to the Durham County Sheriff's Department.

Witnesses said he and another man, Freddy Cheek, also 33, squared off across the parking lot and fired at least 19 shots at each other. Cheek was also arrested, although no charges have been released.

Investigators have not released any more information.
