Concern was raised for Spruill (a former WCW Cruiserweight Champion during her wrestling career) yesterday evening when she went public on social media with her battles, which led to police being dispatched at several known addresses before her family were contacted with a correct and updated address that she had just moved to in recent weeks.
On behalf of Wrestling-News.Net, we would like to extend our condolences to the family, friends and fans of Daffney Unger (real name Shannon Spruill).
