Grace Carter, 65, was attending a Bible study at Everlasting Life Holiness Church in Prichard on the evening of December 28, 2021, when a single bullet fired from a car outside pierced the church door and struck her. The shooting reportedly began with an unrelated family dispute: 26-year-old Kaillyn Christine Howard Harris allegedly fired one shot from her vehicle while attempting to frighten her grandmother and was said to have been under the influence of Xanax.

Harris turned herself in to the Prichard Police Department two days later, on December 30, 2021, and was charged with murder and shooting into an occupied building. She pleaded not guilty in January 2022 and was being held without bond. Carter’s family expressed forgiveness, saying Harris’s remorse and surrender brought them some comfort.

Are there witnesses or additional details about the moments leading up to the shot that anyone in the area can share?
