Z107.7 News has learned that the man accused of shooting and killing his daughter in North Joshua Tree early last month died of his gunshot wound. Just before 2 p.m. November 4, Teri Weller, 63, heard a shot inside a house in the 4400 block of Sunever Road. When she went inside, she found her sister, Geri Weller, 63, suffering from a gunshot wound. Her father, Gene Weller, 89, was also in the room armed with a handgun; Teri was able to wrestle the gun away from him. Moments later, Dondi Moore, 51, entered the room and warned Teri that Gene had armed himself with a second handgun. Almost immediately, Gene shot Moore; Teri, fearing for her safety, then shot Gene. Gene Weller died of his injuries on November 6. The completed investigation will be sent to the district attorney’s office for review.
