I was just informed by my uncle that one of my cousins were shot in the head and killed sometime this past Friday here in Lafayette.
She was in the next door neighbors apartment, but that is about all the details I can find.
My uncle said there is no report of the underlying cause.
They are not saying if it was suicide, homicide, or accidental.
This incident does not appear to have been reported at all by local news.
This happened in an apartment complex on South 9th street, just south of Twyckingham Apartments at about 8am.
She was the youngest of 6 kids and all of her siblings survive.
I was not close.
I had actually not seen this girl since she was about 4 years old.
I cannot get over the fact that the local news media has not reported on this.
It seems the type of story they too often want to over report.
I'll try to update as I receive more information.
Stay safe out there folks.
