LaTaeivia Williams was a 14-year-old girl from Cleveland who was fatally shot in the neck on July 28, 2012. The shooting occurred after a fight at her 14th birthday party; partygoers, including rival gang members, spilled into the street, tensions escalated, and shots were exchanged. LaTaeivia was caught in the crossfire and was pronounced dead shortly after midnight.

The Cleveland Division of Police investigated and arrested five suspects. Jeffrey L. McWhorter, Jr., age 20, was charged with aggravated murder and was held in custody awaiting charges; four other individuals were also implicated in the shooting. The case was profiled on the A&E program The First 48.

LaTaeivia’s family and friends continue to mourn her loss and her memory is honored through tributes and memorials. Does anyone have information about the events that night or knew LaTaeivia and can add detail to what happened?
