A late-night shooting in Coahoma, Mississippi, on August 10, 2021, left 51-year-old Regina Smith-Hopkins dead and injured several others. Deputies arrived just before 10 p.m. and found multiple victims; Ms. Smith-Hopkins was pronounced dead at the scene. Three other people were taken to a hospital in Clarksdale, and 14-year-old Zymarious Smith later died of his wounds.

The Coahoma County Sheriff’s Office and the Mississippi Bureau of Investigations led the response. Within days three men were arrested: 30-year-old Jerry Seamster, 23-year-old D’Amonte Abrams and 24-year-old DeAngelo Abrams. Each was charged with two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault and held in the Coahoma County Jail in Clarksdale without bond pending further proceedings. Ms. Smith-Hopkins was described by family as sweet and loving; funeral services were held September 4, 2021, at Union Grove Baptist Church with burial at Heavenly Rest Cemetery.
