Hannah Panise Sheffield, 29, was driving home after dinner with friends on the night of April 10, 2021, when she was struck by gunfire at the intersection of McElroy and Evans Street in Bossier City, Louisiana. Her vehicle then crashed into a house in the 1100 block of Burchett Street. Emergency responders transported her to Ochsner LSU Health, where she was pronounced dead.

Bossier City detectives treated the incident as a homicide. Prosecutors said Sheffield was the victim of a drive-by shooting and that she was not the intended target; the shots were believed to have been aimed at a rival of the shooter. The investigation led to the arrest of 31-year-old Demetrius McCoy, who was later convicted by a Bossier Parish jury of second-degree murder in August 2022 and faced a mandatory life sentence.

Does anyone have information about Hannah’s movements that night or about the intersection of McElroy and Evans Street around April 10, 2021?
