Shaniya Monroe was 19 when she was shot and killed shortly after midnight on July 14, 2026, at the Wexford Townhomes on Wemberly Circle in Duncanville. She had recently traveled from Michigan to Texas. Police found Monroe and an adult man at the scene; both had multiple gunshot wounds. The man was taken to a different hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening and was expected to survive. Monroe was taken to Methodist Dallas Medical Center, where she died.

Officers reported a white Dodge Challenger fleeing the townhomes and pursued it into Dallas, ending near the 6300 block of Interstate 20. The driver, identified as Emajin Trevon Jackson, was taken into custody and booked on a charge of evading arrest or detention with a motor vehicle. Investigators named Jackson as a person of interest and said additional charges were expected as the investigation continued. The motive has not been released.

Did anyone who knew Shaniya or who was in the Wexford Townhomes area that night see the Challenger or other vehicles leaving the complex?
