Sara Cancel Urriola, 30, was one of three people shot to death on February 8, 2021, at the Calloway Cove Apartments in Jacksonville, Florida. Born in Panama, she had moved to the United States, worked briefly at the State Attorney’s Office in Jacksonville and was pursuing a master’s degree at Florida State University. Her family described her as devoted to her family and her young son.

Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office gang unit officers in the area heard gunfire and located the scene where Sara, Randy Garcia and Angel Rivera Nater were found with gunshot wounds. Investigators reported a confrontation that escalated into violence and noted a substantial amount of Oxycontin pills, a large ball of unknown white powder and cash at the scene. Four teenagers were arrested: 14-year-old Alana Rae Sears (identified as the getaway driver), 17-year-olds Kyshawn Lamont Glover and Owen Maoma Laureano-Cosme, and 18-year-old Keon Hunter Lester; all were charged with second-degree murder and conspiracy to commit robbery and were found with three firearms.

If anyone knew Sara or has information about the events that night, please come forward.
