DeBary Fla Sept 20 2011 A worker at a DeBary Burger King was shot to death Monday morning by a man identified as her former boyfriend, the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office said.

The shooting appears to be the result of a domestic quarrel, Sheriff’s spokesman Gary Davidson said.

He identified the victim as Heidi Shelmire.

In custody is 41-year-old Jesus Morales, he said.

There is a history of violence in their relationship, and Morales was recently released from jail after serving three months for aggravated stalking and violating an injunction for protection obtained by the victim, Davidson said.

Deputies were dispatched to the restaurant at 305 Sunrise Blvd. about 10:20 a.m., he said.

Shelmire was taken by ambulance to Florida Hospital Fish Memorial in Orange City, where she was pronounced dead, Davidson said.

Morales surrendered about 10:45 a.m., Davidson said. The charges Morales faces have not been released.
