Mickell Tolbert was 21 and a third year nursing student at Avila University when she was shot to death in Kansas City on Monday, September 5, 2016. A Ruskin High School graduate who had earned a Nightingale Scholarship, Tolbert worked two part-time jobs while studying for her nursing licensing exam.

Police responded about 2:20 p.m. to reports of gunfire in the 2100 block of East 45th Street. Behind an abandoned house near 45th and Garfield Avenue they found Tolbert’s body; she had sustained several gunshot wounds. Family members said she missed a 3:00 p.m. shift that day, which prompted their search. Friends and relatives told investigators they believed she may have been with two men before her death, though that detail was not confirmed by police.

No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified. Does anyone who knew Mickell or was in that area on September 5, 2016 have information that could help her family and investigators?
