On April 23, 2014, 33-year-old Ebony Naomi Hurd was shot inside a vehicle on the 2100 block of Mimosa Street in Richmond, Virginia. Officers found Hurd and a man later identified as Ivan Tyree Bridges; both had sustained multiple gunshot wounds. Hurd was taken to a hospital and died of her injuries, while Bridges was pronounced dead at the scene.

Witness accounts placed two unidentified Black males in the area before the shooting; they were described as about 20 to 25 years old and between 5 feet 3 inches and 5 feet 8 inches tall. The FBI’s Richmond Area Violent Enterprise Task Force joined the Richmond Police Department search, and the FBI offered up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. The suspects have not been apprehended and the case remains unsolved.

Ebony Hurd was a mother of three, Kalee, Ontranique, and Lakeith Hurd, and a grandmother; she was survived by her parents and five siblings and was buried at Maury Cemetery following services at Mimms Funeral Home on May 1, 2014. Does anyone have information that could help bring justice for Ebony Hurd and Ivan Bridges?
