K’Mia Simmons was 21 and a mother of two when she was fatally shot in Saint Petersburg, Florida, on March 30, 2021. She was a passenger in a car driven by the father of her children, Parise Lovett Jr., after the family had been reserving a space at Wildwood Park for a birthday party. Shots were fired at the vehicle; K’Mia covered her baby with her body and was struck. She died in the front seat of the car after Lovett drove their children to a family member’s home and left K’Mia in the vehicle.

Investigators determined K’Mia was not the intended target; the shooter was aiming at the driver, Lovett. The St. Petersburg Police Department publicly appealed for information. On April 7, 2021, police arrested 20-year-old Tyron Jackasal, who was already in custody on a robbery charge, in connection with the shooting. K’Mia’s family described her hopes of becoming a nurse and gynecologist and called for an end to the violence that took her life.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or memories of K’Mia and her family that could help with the case?
