Alexis Moss was a 19-year-old Alabama State University sophomore who was shot at an off-campus homecoming party in Montgomery in the early hours of September 7, 2019. Police say an altercation at a large Spruce Street gathering led to gunfire; Alexis was an innocent bystander who was struck and—according to her family—shot twice in the head. She was taken to a local hospital in a private vehicle and died from her injuries on the evening of September 9, 2019. A second woman at the party suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.

Montgomery police arrested 23-year-old William Slater on September 12 and charged him with murder. At a November 2019 preliminary hearing, an investigator testified that a shell casing found near the scene matched a gun Slater owned, but the defense argued there was no proof he was the shooter or instigated the dispute. District Judge Tiffany McCord dismissed the reckless murder charge for insufficient probable cause. Authorities said the case could still be presented to a Montgomery County grand jury; as of November 2019 no other arrests had been reported and the shooting remained unsolved.

Did anyone at the Spruce Street party or nearby that night see something that could help identify who fired the shots?
