Derrica Addison was 26 when she was shot and killed on October 17, 2018. She was walking along South Avalon Boulevard in the Green Meadows neighborhood of Los Angeles at about 1:45 p.m. when an argument with another woman escalated and the other woman produced a gun and shot Derrica. She was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 3:27 p.m.

The Los Angeles Police Department opened an investigation. Detective Nathan Kouri said the reason for the argument that led to the shooting remained unclear. The suspect fled the scene immediately after the shooting; there have been no arrests reported. Investigators noted difficulty due to a lack of clear motive and few witnesses willing to give detailed accounts.
