An 11-year-old girl, Lamara Glenn, was killed after a pre-dawn drive-by shooting at her aunt’s home on Pennsylvania Street in Detroit. In the early hours of February 20, 2024, at least 23 shots were fired into the house while Lamara was sleeping on a couch during a sleepover. She was struck in the head, taken to a children’s hospital on life support, and was declared brain-dead; she died on February 26, 2024 after life support was withdrawn.

Investigators tied the attack to a stolen vehicle and to a group believed to be running a large-scale car theft ring. The house had been targeted before, and authorities say the shooting was retaliatory and meant for an adult in the residence rather than a child. In the days after the shooting, four men were arrested and charged in connection with the case. The alleged shooters are named as Tahkari Turner, 18, and Nasir Lavant Garrett, 19. Robert Lee Turner Jr., 20, is accused of helping hide the weapon, and Hershel Laneir Marian, 19, faces multiple counts including assault with intent to murder. Charges were expected to be amended to include murder following Lamara’s death and court proceedings were scheduled to begin.

Does anyone have information about the February 20 shooting or about the vehicle used that could help investigators?
