On the morning of December 28, 2022, the Crestview Police Department received a call reporting that a shooting had taken place at a residence on Nun Drive. 

When officers arrived on the scene, they found 31-year-old Rictaysha Barnum, a female victim, dead inside the home. Her husband, 30-year-old Camden Tyre Barnum, was detained and later transported to the Okaloosa County Jail, where he has been charged with murder.

According to the Crestview Police Department, the circumstances surrounding the shooting are still under investigation, but it appears to be related to domestic violence within the home. 

  • The department says they are working with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to process evidence and determine exactly what led to the tragic incident.
