On a Sunday morning in August 2014, 23-year-old Brittney Foster was shot multiple times in the parking lot of the Buffalo Wild Wings on Highway 45 North in Columbus, Mississippi. The shooting occurred around 1 a.m.; Foster was taken to Baptist Memorial Hospital–Golden Triangle and died of her injuries at 2:40 a.m.

Witnesses said the shooter and Foster were acquainted. The shooter, 25-year-old Tarkesha Carter, entered the restaurant after the initial shooting and asked about another female employee, then chased that employee out the back and fired additional shots that missed. Carter was found and arrested in the restaurant’s front parking lot shortly afterward.

Family members and investigators described a possible love-triangle motive: Carter’s relatives said Carter had been in a long-term relationship with the other employee, while that employee denied a romantic relationship and called the incident jealousy over her friendship with Foster, with whom she was living at the time.

Anyone with information about Brittney Foster’s case or who knew her is asked to come forward.
