Sinclaire Sandoval was 15 when she was fatally shot at a house party in west Phoenix on January 16, 2016. The gathering near 43rd Avenue and Glendale had 40 to 60 attendees, ages 15 to 21. Witnesses said the party became chaotic; Sinclaire had been taking pictures with friends in a bathroom moments before she was found on the floor with a gunshot wound to the neck and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Phoenix police detained a 16-year-old male in connection with the shooting; his name was not released because of his age. Friends of both Sinclaire and the detained teen said they knew each other, and some suggested the shooting might have been accidental. No motive was released and the investigation was ongoing.

If anyone attended that party or has information about what happened that night, please share what you know.
