A family dispute in Richmond ended with the killing of a 22-year-old woman. Alicia Lakeisha Ellis, known as Tink, was shot and died on May 31, 2025, at an apartment complex on South Harrison Street. She was born in Richmond on March 28, 2004, attended John Marshall High School, and was close to her nieces and nephews.

Authorities arrested Alicia’s father, Alonzo Ellis; he reportedly told police he shot his daughter during the argument and was holding his grandson at the time. Prosecutors initially charged him with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and shooting into an occupied dwelling, then withdrew those counts and later filed a first-degree murder charge as the court process moved forward.

Does anyone who knew Alicia or was in that neighborhood on May 31 have information that could help clarify what happened?
