LaKeisha Shunta Bullions Hayward, 37, was shot and killed on June 17, 2023, in Alexandria, Louisiana. She was attending a funeral repast in the 3300 block of Willow Glenn Road when a gunman began firing, leaving Hayward dead and three other people seriously injured. Hayward was from San Antonio, Texas, and had previous ties to Alexandria.

Authorities identified the shooter as 59-year-old Augusta Moore of Pineville. After the attack Moore fled and barricaded himself at his East Shamrock residence, leading to a prolonged standoff with multiple agencies. Negotiations failed and an exchange of gunfire with officers left Moore dead. Investigators reported the firearm used had been illegally possessed and that Moore was a convicted murderer who had served 28 years on a life sentence for killing his wife before his release.

Did anyone who attended that repast or lived nearby notice anything leading up to the shooting?
