Saniya Lofton, 19, was shot and killed during a dispute at the Stonebrook Apartments in Antioch on August 4, 2022. She had been at the apartment to help her cousin move out when an altercation involved 24-year-old Shaquavius Moore, who had been staying at the residence. Moore retrieved a gun and opened fire; Lofton was struck and pronounced dead at the scene.

Three other family members — her mother, her cousin, and one brother — were also wounded and taken to hospitals with injuries they were expected to survive. Another brother escaped by jumping from a second-story window. Moore fled to Cheatham County, later contacted authorities, and was taken into custody. He admitted to the shooting and said it was self-defense; he was charged with one count of criminal homicide and four counts of attempted criminal homicide and booked with bond set at $650,000.

Lofton had graduated from Oakland High School and was preparing for her second year at Motlow State Community College; family and friends remembered her as kind, giving, and bright. Does anyone have information about the events at the Stonebrook Apartments that night or knew Saniya?
