Tanasia Rollins-Townsend, a 25-year-old Black/African American woman from Claymont, Delaware, was shot in the early morning hours of January 30, 2021, in the Overlook Colony neighborhood. Officers who responded to a report of a shooting on the unit block of 3rd Avenue found her suffering from a gunshot wound; she was transported to a local hospital and died later that morning.

New Castle County investigators treated the incident as a homicide and focused the investigation on the shooting scene in Overlook Colony. Early radio traffic that suggested a second victim near the Claymont Fire Company station proved unfounded. Police publicly asked for help from witnesses, residents with surveillance video, and anyone with small pieces of information, offering anonymous tip options and directing people to contact Detective Mancuso or the New Castle County Division of Police.

Does anyone in Claymont remember activity or footage from Overlook Colony the morning of January 30, 2021, that could help investigators?
