Samantha F. Ganther, 49, was killed inside her Norfolk home on Sunday, June 18, 2017, after gunfire from an escalating dispute outside her residence in the 2700 block of Kimball Terrace struck her. The confrontation began as a verbal argument between two men identified as Ronald M. Best and Ulysses Butler.

Police and paramedics found Ganther suffering from a gunshot wound shortly after 7:30 p.m.; she was pronounced dead at the scene. Norfolk police arrested 41-year-old Ronald M. Best without incident and charged him with second-degree murder, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and shooting into an occupied dwelling. Ulysses Butler was also arrested and charged with malicious wounding, shooting into an occupied vehicle, and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony; both men were held in the Norfolk City Jail without bond.

Was anyone in the neighborhood that evening aware of the argument or saw either man near Kimball Terrace?
