On Valentine’s Day 1996, 19-year-old Sara Keyenejad, six months pregnant, was shot while sitting at a slot machine in a 7-Eleven on Bonanza Road in east Las Vegas. Sara had recently moved to Las Vegas with her husband; the couple were expecting a son they planned to name Tyler Matthew. Two men entered the store disguised in women’s clothing intending to rob the place. One assailant carried a long gun and the other a handgun.

As the man with the long gun entered, he turned and fired a single shot that struck Sara in the chest and abdomen, killing her and her unborn child. The robbers fled with about $50. Sara and her son were later buried together in the same casket in Big Bear City, California. In August 2020 two men, Anthony Williams and Kareem Brock, were arrested and charged in connection with the killing; by October 2020 charges against Williams were dismissed, and Brock was bound over on a single count of open murder while other charges were dismissed.

Was anyone in the area that day able to see or remember anything that could help clarify what happened?
