Shaquira McCottry was 27 when she was gunned down on the 1300 block of West Wishart Street in Philadelphia on November 10, 2020. Visiting family in the neighborhood where she grew up, McCottry was approached by two individuals at about 11:06 p.m. and struck by multiple gunshots. Police found her lying in the street and she was taken to Temple University Hospital, where she died that night.

Investigators recovered 22 spent shell casings at the scene, some within inches of where she fell, and released surveillance footage showing two people running up to her and shooting. McCottry was a Pennsylvania Army National Guard soldier, living in Atlanta at the time, and a 2011 graduate of Girard College who played basketball and soccer at Manor College and Cedar Crest College. The Philadelphia Police Department offered a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Did anyone in the community know Shaquira or see anything that night that could help the case?
