The first incident occurred around 11:12 am near the Southwest Durham Drive and Durham Chapel Hill Boulevard intersection.

Police officers found a vehicle stopped in the northbound lane with Jennifer Faith Eno, 32, suffering from a gunshot wound. Eno was rushed to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died.

Records show Jennifer Faith Eno married Brandon Eno in 2011 and still shared the same address as of summer 2022..

Just eight minutes later, an off-duty Durham police officer heard gunshots in the parking lot of a business in the 3700 block of Mount Moriah Road.

The officer discovered Scott Edward Snyder Jr., 31, with a gunshot wound. Snyder was transported to the hospital but also died.

Brandon Eno, 32, was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with both shootings, which police said were connected. He is currently being held in the Durham County Jail with no bond.

Police said Eno knew at least one of the victims but provided no additional information.

One witness told WRAL News she was inside Home Depot when she heard the commotion outside.

"Police were already there," she said. "A lady was walking towards us. We asked what happened, and she said a man in a red van had been shot and they just took him away in the ambulance. There were shoes tossed by the red van and blood on the ground."

On Monday, Brandon Eno's court-appointed attorney shared Eno is a father as he had a virtual court appearance.

"Mr. Eno is 32 years old," the attorney said. "He is the father of a 12-year-old living with him. He has lived here for years and has family in the area."

His next court date is June 4.
