Joanna Elizabeth Steed, 43, was killed in a drive-by shooting on the evening of September 5, 2018, in Decatur, Georgia. Steed was at a friend’s home for a band practice with Lord High Admirals and was playing bass in the basement when two vehicles reportedly pulled into the cul-de-sac and fired multiple shots. At least one bullet passed through a basement window and struck Steed in the head. She was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead.

DeKalb County police opened a homicide investigation and believed more than one shooter was involved, but investigators had not determined a motive. No suspects had been identified and no arrests were announced. A reward that began at $2,500 was later increased with contributions from Steed’s employer and a GoFundMe organized by friends.

Steed was a paralegal and assistant manager at an Atlanta law firm for nearly two decades and was active in the local music scene. A celebration of her life was held at the Virginia-Highland Church. Does anyone who knew Joanna or was in the Shannon Ridge Court area that night have information to share?
