Sherrice Monique Jackson Hill was 43 when she was killed at her home on Seward Street in Rochester, New York. On July 2, 2021, while standing in her own doorway with her young daughter, she was struck by gunfire fired through the screen door and died. Minutes earlier there had been a drive-by shooting on a nearby street; those involved abandoned a stolen vehicle near Sherrice’s residence and, when another car arrived, its occupants saw her at the door and opened fire.

Investigators say ballistic evidence links Sherrice’s killing to a gang-related shootout that occurred a few days earlier, and authorities describe her as an innocent bystander not connected to the shootings. The Rochester Police Department has identified suspects and has physical and video evidence, but no arrests have been made because witnesses have not cooperated. The case remains unsolved.

Anyone who knew Sherrice or has information about the events near Seward Street on or around July 2, 2021, is asked to come forward.
