Kendra Lewis was a 27-year-old mother from Orlando who was killed on December 7, 2016, after being struck in the face by a stray bullet while driving through the parking lot of a Citgo at Silver Star and Pine Hills roads. Her 5-year-old daughter was in the back seat. Lewis was taken to the hospital in critical condition and died the next day after being taken off life support. Investigators determined she was an innocent bystander and not the intended target.

Witnesses said a teenager who was part of the altercation fled in a white SUV. Two 17-year-olds, Jayvon Joachin and Deshawn Miller, were later arrested in Polk County while driving a stolen car and charged as adults with first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder. Lewis’s family filed a lawsuit against the gas station, alleging it failed to provide adequate security despite frequent violent incidents in the area.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or about safety concerns at that Citgo that could help the ongoing discussions about prevention?
