"We have suffered a tragic loss today, and our community is in
shocked grief," Chapel Hill Mayor Kevin Foy said. "Eve was a
beautiful, caring person who exemplified the best and the
brightest."
A vigil will be held in the Pit at 7 p.m.
Carson, 22, lived about a mile from the location in which she was
found.
Her body, found at the corner of Hillcrest Road and Hillcrest Circle
at about 5 a.m. Wednesday, was identified by police at about 9 a.m.
today in a follow-up investigation to gunshots in the East Franklin
Street neighborhood reported by a Davie Circle resident Wednesday
morning.
Chancellor James Moeser will give an address at 3 p.m. in Polk
Place. Chapel Hill police will host another news conference at 5:30
p.m.
Students, faculty or staff who need assistance are encouraged to
contact the Office of the Dean of Students (966-4042) or Counseling
