Natisha Covert, a 36-year-old mother of eight, was killed on June 21, 2020, after being struck by a stray bullet during a large block party in Waldo, Florida. The event drew an estimated 400 to 500 people, and gunfire broke out in the early morning hours. First responders had difficulty reaching her because the crowd became confrontational and impeded emergency efforts; she died despite medical aid.

Covert was remembered by family and friends for her vibrant personality and a fondness for designer brands. Her children, who range in age, have been deeply affected by the loss. The Alachua County Sheriff’s Office has conducted numerous interviews and pursued leads but had not made any arrests; detectives appealed to the public and offered a reward for information.
