CHICAGO, Jan. 27 (UPI) -- A woman found slain in a Chicago townhouse, identified as the mother of NBA player Eddy Curry's son, was trying to escape an abusive boyfriend, her family says.
Nova Henry, 24, and her 9-month-old daughter Ava were found shot to death Saturday by Henry's mother, Yolan Henry, who told Tuesday's Chicago Tribune her daughter had just moved to the South Loop condominium to escape an ex-boyfriend against whom Nova Henry had taken out an order of protection.
