On the evening of Tuesday, February 7, 2012, 43-year-old Tonya M. Ross was killed by gunfire that penetrated her home on Haynes Street in Nashville. The shots occurred just before 6:30 p.m.; Tonya was resting in her bedroom when she was struck, and she died after being taken to a nearby hospital. Investigators found several bullet holes in her bedroom wall.

Her parents, who had lived in the house for 52 years, were in the home at the time and were unharmed. Her mother, Johnnie Ross, ran to her husband after hearing the shots and later discovered Tonya in her room. Tonya was mother to four daughters — Sharricka Ross, Naton Jumper, Latonya Ross, and Briana Ross — and grandmother to five. Police investigated whether Tonya was the intended target or whether the wrong house was hit; no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced and the investigation remains open.

Can anyone who lived in that neighborhood or has information about the shooting contact the Nashville Police Department with tips?
