Latoya Davis, 32, was shot and killed in a convenience-store parking lot in Collingdale on the evening of October 5, 2024. Davis, a Black mother of two daughters who was six months pregnant with her first son, had gone to the Wawa on MacDade Boulevard. Surveillance video and accounts in the case say she argued with another woman, 30-year-old Evelena Williams, after the two parked next to each other. The dispute moved into the parking lot; Davis stood by her car and reportedly threw an unknown object at Williams, who then drew a handgun and fired one shot as Davis was turning or running away.

Police arrived about 7:20 p.m. and found Davis with a gunshot wound to her upper torso. Medics pronounced her dead at the scene. Williams remained at the scene, told officers she had shot Davis, and a Ruger .380 semiautomatic handgun was recovered from her vehicle. Williams was arrested and charged in connection with the deaths of Davis and her unborn child; a judge later ordered her to stand trial on those charges.

Davis is remembered by family as outgoing and caring, always checking on others. If anyone saw the incident at the Wawa or has information about the confrontation that led to the shooting, please share what is known.
