Destiny Villas, 24, was found shot on Monday, August 28, 2023, in the 600 block of Catherine Avenue in Muskegon, Michigan. She was a mother of two and was pregnant with a third child. Police described the incident as a targeted attack and said it was not a random act of violence.

Within days, authorities arrested two people from Muskegon Heights — a 17-year-old and a 21-year-old — on related charges; names and specific charges were not released immediately. Family members remembered Villas as a loving, devoted mother who had been eagerly awaiting her baby.

The investigation and legal process are ongoing. If anyone knew Destiny, her movements that day, or has information about the shooting, please contact the Muskegon Police Department.
