Providence man injured in Webster, Mass., shooting

DUDLEY, Mass. -- A judge has ordered a Worcester man held without bail on a charge of murdering his ex-girlfriend at a Webster auto parts store yesterday.

Authorities say 38-year-old William Goddard also shot and injured another worker, who is from Providence, at Action Crash Parts.

Goddard was arraigned today in Dudley District Court on a charge of murder and armed assault with intent to commit murder.

The charges stem from the shooting death of 30-year-old Kelly Brackley, a mother of five from Auburn.

The police say Brackley was the target in the attack and that her co-worker, 25-year-old Yograj Shivoasani of Providence, suffered a gunshot wound in the arm.

Goddard eluded the police for several hours before he was arrested in the woods in Berlin after a standoff.
