Sharon Darns Watkins, a 58-year-old African American woman, was found dead inside her Tampa home at 1805 N. Delaware Ave. on June 27, 2015. Her husband discovered her shortly after 2 p.m.; she had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was lying in the bedroom when someone fired shots through the window that struck her. Authorities immediately treated the death as a homicide and have said the husband was not considered a suspect.

Family members — including children and grandchildren — have spoken about their grief and urged anyone with information to come forward. They have suggested demolition of neighboring apartments for highway construction might make witnesses more willing to talk.

The Tampa Police Department is investigating and Crime Stoppers was offering a cash reward for tips leading to an arrest. Does anyone in the Tampa area remember unusual activity near 1805 N. Delaware Ave. around late June 2015 or have information that could help the family?
