Sadeya Hall was 16 when she was killed on February 1, 2017, while spending a winter Wednesday evening with friends in a Saint Paul apartment on Case Avenue East. Just before 10:30 p.m. a shot came from outside and tore through a basement window; the round struck Sadeya and she was pronounced dead at the scene. Two other people—a teenage girl and a young man—were also wounded and taken to Regions Hospital and survived.

Investigators described the shooting as not appearing random, and friends said whoever came to the home that night was likely looking for someone else. Friends remembered Sadeya as a vibrant, goofy teenager who had endured earlier family loss after her younger brother died accidentally. Saint Paul police have interviewed witnesses and neighbors, but no arrest had been announced and the killing remained listed among unsolved homicides.

If anyone was in that neighborhood that night or knew Sadeya and the people she was with, please share information with Saint Paul police.
