A 19 year old Houston mother was killed in a drive by shooting at a northeast Houston apartment complex on Tuesday afternoon, according to local news reports.
Reports say a dark, newer model Chevy Camaro drove through the complex’s parking lot and a passenger fired multiple shots into a second floor apartment. The victim has been identified as Lekendra, who was the mother of a 2 year old daughter. Her boyfriend reportedly found her. She was killed one day before her 20th birthday. Her child was not home at the time.
Reports also say investigators were looking at the boyfriend’s ex girlfriend as a possible suspect. According to media reports, social media posts attributed to the woman’s account included messages that appeared to reference a plan to harm someone. Those posts have not been proven to be connected to the shooting, no one had been convicted, and the ex girlfriend has not been reported to have commented publicly. Police asked anyone with information to contact investigators.
Our thoughts are with Lekendra’s family and friends as they wait for answers.
