Nashville detectives are hard at work piecing together the tragic events that unfolded Sunday on Woodale Lane, where 22-year-old Kelveonna Holmes was fatally shot. The incident, reported by the Nashville government's official site, occurred when Holmes, accompanied by her boyfriend, 24, and their three-year-old son, visited a residence and were ambushed by gunfire from a passing vehicle.
The same address was targeted just a day prior, on Saturday, in a drive-by shooting that, surprisingly, resulted in no injuries. This repeat assault under the light of day ended in tragedy; as shots ran out, inflicting a fatal wound on Holmes and a superficial one on her boyfriend, who, experiencing a graze wound, was released after treatment. Their son survived the incident unharmed, tucked away safely in their car.
Swiftly responding to the scene, officers rendered aid to Holmes before rushing her to Skyline Medical Center, where she later succumbed to her injuries. The resident of 2417 Woodale Lane, whose house has now twice been rattled by the sound of gunfire, has professed ignorance to detectives, claiming to have no knowledge regarding the motive behind these shootings. Officially, the investigation remains ongoing.
