Habibba Knight Walker, 45, died on April 21, 2018, from gunshot wounds after a domestic dispute at a Trenton Street home in McDonald Chapel, Alabama. The confrontation began just before 8:00 a.m. on April 16, when her ex-husband, 46-year-old Dereck Jamaille Walker, forcibly entered the residence she shared with her children. The children escaped to a neighbor’s house unharmed.

Walker was critically injured and placed on life support at a local hospital before dying five days later. Detectives obtained arrest warrants charging Dereck Walker with first-degree armed burglary and attempted murder. He was located the next afternoon in Escambia County, Florida, surrendered to law enforcement, told them where the firearm was, and was held in the Escambia County Jail pending extradition to Jefferson County. A celebration of Habibba’s life was held on May 5, 2018.

If anyone knew Habibba or has information about the events of April 16, 2018, please come forward.
