On January 14, 2018, 24-year-old Kami Gilstrap was fatally struck by a stray bullet while at a popular, unregulated target‑shooting area in the desert near Buckeye, Arizona. Gilstrap, who was pregnant and worked as a nanny, was rushed to a nearby hospital in critical condition but died of her injuries. She was the wife of an airman stationed at Luke Air Force Base and is remembered by family as a beloved wife, daughter, and friend.

The shooting happened during a day when the site was crowded with recreational shooters; authorities said hundreds of people were present and that bullets could have come from any direction. Investigators emphasized hazards at the location, noting debris that could cause ricochets and complicate determining a shooter’s direction. Despite an active investigation and public appeals for witnesses, no arrest had been announced.

Does anyone who was at the Buckeye shooting area that day or who knows more about how the site was used have information that could help bring clarity to what happened?
