Six-year-old Laurionne Monique Walker was shot multiple times and killed on March 19, 2021, at the Veranda Village apartment complex at 3637 Shaver Street near Allen-Genoa Road in Pasadena, Texas. The shooting followed an argument over spilled water at an apartment where Laurionne had been left in the care of a relative while her mother attended a vigil for family members killed days earlier in a crash.

Laurionne was taken to Bayshore Hospital and later released to the medical examiner’s office. The shooter, described as related to the renter, fled the scene but was later apprehended. Police charged 35-year-old Raymeon Means with capital murder; he appeared before a judge and was vocal at that appearance. The community held a home-going service at Good Hope Missionary Baptist Church in Houston.

If anyone was at Veranda Village that day or has information about the argument that led to this shooting, please come forward.
