A tragic incident unfolded in Davidson County, where the bodies of a mother and her two young daughters were discovered in their home. Angela, 33, and her nine-year-old daughter Latoya were found in the master bedroom, while six-year-old Lakeisha was found in a second bedroom.
Authorities reported that Angela was lying in bed when she was shot in the head. The medical examiner, Dr. Charles Harlan, indicated that the shot likely came from a distance of six to twelve inches, causing her to lose consciousness immediately and die within minutes. Latoya was found partially on the bed and partially on the floor. She had been shot in the neck and chest, with evidence suggesting she was shot from over two feet away. Her death was not instant, as it likely took her three to ten minutes to succumb to her injuries.
Lakeisha’s body was discovered facedown on the floor next to her bed. She had been shot twice, once in the chest and once in the pelvic area. Dr. Harlan noted that she died from severe bleeding due to the chest wound. Like her mother, Lakeisha was shot from a close range, and she showed signs of trying to protect herself, with grazes on her arm from a bullet. Blood and bullet holes on her bed indicated she was shot while lying down and then fell to the floor after being hit.
The investigation continues as authorities work to piece together the events that led to this heartbreaking loss. The community is left in shock, grappling with the violence that has claimed the lives of these innocent victims.
