Mia Holmes was 17 and pregnant when she was shot in a second-floor room at the WoodSpring Suites in Ankeny, Iowa, on the evening of August 3, 2020. Police responded to multiple 911 calls shortly before 11 p.m.; officers found Mia with a single gunshot wound to the chest. She and her unborn baby were pronounced dead after lifesaving efforts and transport to a hospital.

Mia lived with her boyfriend, 18-year-old Donault Logan, and her mother lived one floor above. Investigators focused on Logan; he turned himself in the day after the shooting. A search warrant states Logan was selling marijuana in the hotel room when he accidentally fired a handgun that struck Mia. He was arrested and charged, later pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter and possession with intent to deliver.

The case concluded with Logan’s sentencing on June 18, 2021, to two concurrent five-year terms for a total of 10 years in prison. Did anyone in the Ankeny area know Mia or have information about what happened that night?
