On the morning of October 14, 1994, a mass shooting at an apartment in the Gilpin Court housing project, 1008 St. James Street in Richmond, Virginia, left five members of one family dead. Nine-year-old Nicole E. Jones was among those killed when a gunman forced his way into the home and opened fire at close range. The victims included Nicole, her mother Daphne Jones, 29, brothers David Jones, 4, and Robert Jones, 3, and another family member, James Randolph, 35. One child was killed in a crib; another died clutching their mother’s leg.

Fourteen-year-old Tamika Jones, seven months pregnant, was shot nine times but survived, called 911, and identified the shooter. Tamika also protected a 20-month-old sister from the attack. The shooting profoundly affected the Richmond community, drawing more than 3,000 people to the victims’ funeral.
