Brittany Bee Matthews, a 31-year-old hairstylist from Jacksonville, Florida, was fatally shot on August 3, 2020, at about 9 a.m. while sitting in her car at a gas station on Edgewood Avenue West and Avenue B. She was struck multiple times and died at the scene. Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said the gunman appeared to have targeted her.

Security footage showed a thin Black male in a hoodie and face mask run toward Matthews’ car, shoot into it, then flee in a silver Nissan Rogue. The vehicle was later recovered and found to have been stolen, with no direct link to the suspect. JSO has released photos of a man and a woman identified as persons of interest, but no arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

Family members say Matthews had earlier told her sister she was being harassed, and her mother, Freda Matthews, has spoken about the deep impact of the loss on Matthews’ young son. A GoFundMe was set up to support the child. If anyone has information about what happened that morning, please come forward.
