Laurie Kay Lundeberg, 50, was found shot to death outside her Grand Rapids home near Lincoln Avenue and Bridge Street in the early hours of March 18, 2017. She suffered three gunshot wounds, including one to the face, one to the chest, and a fatal shot that pierced her armpit and lungs. Robbery was ruled out because her personal belongings remained with her.

Lundeberg had lived in the house for about two decades, worked as a pharmacy cashier, and was a mother to a son and daughter. Friends described her as kind and willing to help others, though she had reportedly been having problems with some tenants. In September 2016 she had been assaulted at home by a man identified as Vicente Rodriguez Ortiz, who pleaded guilty to assault and battery and was on probation at the time of her killing.

A later arrest of Ortiz for another killing led to statements in which he allegedly referenced Lundeberg’s death and told police she had yelled at him that night and he shot her in a rage. Is there anyone who knew Laurie or the neighborhood who can add details about her last days or the people living at that address?
