Shoni Nielle Sanders, 22, was fatally shot while answering the front door of her Philadelphia home on the 5800 block of Walton Avenue in Cobbs Creek on November 7, 2019. The shooting happened about 7 p.m.; police found Sanders inside the doorway after three rounds had been fired through the front door from a small-caliber semi-automatic gun. She suffered a point-blank gunshot wound to the chest and was pronounced dead that evening at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.

A 4-year-old son and other family members were inside the house at the time but were not injured. Acting Philadelphia Police Commissioner Christine Coulter said it appeared Sanders was the intended target. No arrests have been made and the motive remains unclear; detectives were canvassing for surveillance video and asking the public for help.

Does anyone in Cobbs Creek remember seeing anything around Walton Avenue that evening or have surveillance footage that could help investigators?
