Danette Ann Kane, 59, was fatally shot in Spokane, Washington, on December 19, 2017. Known as Dee, she was born October 14, 1958, in Butte, Montana, the eldest of five daughters. She graduated from Butte Central in 1976 and earned a Bachelor of Science from Montana Tech in 1980. Danette owned the Westview Manor apartment complex in Spokane.

The shooting also wounded the complex’s apartment manager, Michael Troy, who was left blind. A 27-year-old woman, Anne Carpenter, was arrested a few days later after a city-wide police search ended near NorthTown Mall; she was found armed with a 9mm handgun. Reports linked the attack to Carpenter’s father facing eviction from the complex, a claim the Kane family denied knowing about.

If anyone knew Danette, her work at Westview Manor, or saw activity near the complex around December 19, 2017, please come forward with information.
