LonNasha L. Tate, 27, was shot inside a home on the 3600 block of Askew Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri, in the early hours of Thursday, July 21, 2016. Police responded about 12:30 a.m.; paramedics took Tate to a hospital but her injuries were fatal. Two young children were in the residence at the time.

A family member said Tate knew the shooter and that she was holding a shotgun when she was shot, but investigators described the motive as unclear. The killing was recorded as the city’s 55th homicide that year and prompted an immediate investigation and public appeal for information.

Does anyone have information about that night or about people connected to the Askew Avenue residence who could help bring answers to Tate’s family?
