Keira Johnson was 21 when she was killed in her Newport News home on June 28, 2015. Shortly after 1:53 a.m., while she was asleep on Circuit Lane, a stray bullet passed through a wall and struck her. Family members initially thought she was having a seizure; it was only when her brother tried to help that they found the gunshot wound. Keira was taken to a local hospital and pronounced dead from the single gunshot.

Investigators determined Keira was not the intended target; the bullet was described as a random act of violence. The Newport News Police Department canvassed the neighborhood and interviewed residents, but no immediate suspect was identified and no arrest was announced in the immediate aftermath. Keira’s family said her death left them with unanswered questions and they eventually moved away from the area.

Did anyone in Newport News see or hear anything in the early hours of June 28, 2015, that might help bring clarity to this case?
