Nissa Danielle Evans, 48, was found unconscious from an apparent gunshot wound and pronounced dead at her Duncanville home in the 200 block of Merribrook Trail on November 1, 2021. Paramedics responded but could not save her.

Detectives developed probable cause that a family member was responsible. On November 2, 2021, the Duncanville SWAT team arrested 27-year-old Steven Hill at a hotel parking lot; he was charged with murder and held in the Dallas County Jail on $1 million bond. Public reports do not describe what led to the shooting or detail Hill’s relationship with Evans.

Evans is survived by her sons Dylan Birdwell and Steven Hill, her mother Lucy Meeker, her father James Evans Jr., step-father Terry Meeker, and aunts Kathy Evans and Cindy Evans. Her obituary notes an interest in World War history and heavy metal music.

Did anyone in the Duncanville area know Nissa or have information about her final hours?
