“Hopefully his ride down to Miami, he enjoyed”.

Bodden argued with them, left the apartment, then returned with a gun, he said.
The women lived off-campus at the Carolina Club Apartments on Williamson Boulevard. Investigators believe Bodden had been dating Carswell and was living in the apartment for about a week. Bodden tried to run but they caught him.
“Bodden is refusing to leave and he’s getting agitated and a physical fight ensues”, said Chief Chitwood. Chitwood said they asked another friend to help them confront Bodden.
Police said Bodden may be driving a white or silver Chevrolet Trailblazer or Ford Explorer and that he is considered armed and unsafe.
Carswell and McDonald were later found with gunshot wounds to their heads, Chitwood said.
The neighbor was also injured, authorities said, and was taken to Halifax Medical Center in grave condition.
The shooting occurred when Parham, Carswell, McDonald and another student were attempting to evict Bodden, who was several months behind on rent.
Chitwood said inside the home was a person of interest in an investigation. He nearly broke down as he talked about McDonald’s father, who had recently lost his wife to breast cancer. “Chief Chitwood said that, “…once they started living together and rent was due, it became obvious that they really didn’t want [Bodden] there”.
“He gets arrested Friday in Miami by FDLE agents charging him with capital murder”.
Bodden was expected to be brought back to Volusia County early next week.
All of the shooting victims were from Michigan. We will continue to communicate and educate the B-CU family about domestic violence and general conflict resolution. The two women, who are college students, have died.
‘This is a very unfortunate incident and our thoughts and prayers are with the families, loved ones and fellow classmates of these students, ‘ the Daytona Beach school said in a statement.
