Charges in deaths of Curry ex-girlfriend, her baby

Authorities in Chicago have charged a man with murder in the deaths of the former girlfriend of New York Knicks' basketball player Eddy Curry and her infant daughter.

Cook County State's Attorney spokeswoman Sally Daly says 36-year-old Frederick Goings was charged with two counts of first-degree murder on Sunday.

The bodies of 24-year-old Nova Henry and her 9-month-old daughter, Ava, were found in their Chicago apartment on Jan. 24. Both died of multiple gunshot wounds.

Henry was the mother of Curry's 3-year-old son. The boy was found unharmed at the scene.

A spokesman for the Knicks and Curry, a former Chicago Bull, declined comment Sunday.

Goings is due in bond court Monday. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.
