On the night of November 25, 2016, a Thanksgiving week rap concert at Bryan Union Hall in West Point, Mississippi, became a crime scene when 21-year-old Dajah L. Shaw was shot in the chest. She was taken to Baptist Memorial Hospital-Golden Triangle in Columbus and pronounced dead. Shell casings from two different weapons were recovered, suggesting multiple shooters may have been involved.

Dajah was born April 18, 1995, and was the daughter of Okemiah P. Cunningham and Derrick L. Shaw. Funeral services were held December 2, 2016, at Third Mt. Olive M.B. Church, with burial at Strong Hill M.B. Church Cemetery. The West Point Police Department opened an investigation but reported difficulty obtaining witness cooperation; police asked anyone with cellphone video from the event to come forward.

Months later there had been no arrests, and the family’s attorney ran a radio appeal in July 2017 seeking tips from concertgoers. Does anyone who attended that concert or who has video from the venue have information that could help solve this case?
