On March 5, 2023, a home invasion and shooting in the 100 block of Lee Lane in Bolingbrook, Illinois, left three people dead including 9-year-old Sanai London Daniels. Sanai, born October 29, 2013, was shot along with her father, 40-year-old Cartez Daniels, and 17-year-old Samiya A. Shelton-Tillman. Tania Stewart, 34, who was present, survived by playing dead but was seriously injured and hospitalized in stable condition.

Authorities have charged 17-year-old Byrion Montgomery of Bolingbrook with three counts of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, home invasion, aggravated battery, and aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. Montgomery pleaded not guilty and is being held at the River Valley Juvenile Detention Center; plans called for transfer to the Will County Jail after he turned 18 on April 27, 2023, with bail set at $20 million.

The community held a vigil at the DuPage Township Center for Cartez Daniels, Sanai Daniels, and Samiya Shelton-Tillman, and counselors were made available at the schools attended by Sanai and Samiya. If anyone knew Sanai or has information about the case, please come forward to share what you know.
