Plummer had taken one of their two children out to breakfast and then went to Woodland Street and spoke to Ware.
Police said Plummer then pulled a firearm and shot Ware.
Ware was pronounced dead at the scene at about 11 a.m. by Deputy Coroner Ernie Studard.
The Rome Floyd SWAT team entered Plummer’s parents home at about 2:45 p.m. on the corner of Williamson Road and Watts Way on a tip that Plummer was in the house.
“One of the neighbors actually said they saw him drive up (in a red pickup truck) and enter the house,” said Sgt. Dan Pendley with the Floyd County Police Department.
The SWAT team shot gas into the house and then entered it, but Plummer was not found.
