JACKSON, Miss. —
A woman was shot and killed Thursday night while sitting in a car that was stopped at a red light, police said.
Chelsie Lynn Kirschten, 23, was at the intersection of Fortification and State streets along with a female friend just before midnight when police said a man came up to the driver's side of the car and shot Kirschten in the back and ran away.
Advertisement Police said the shooting appears to be random. Nothing was stolen and the shot was fired through the closed window of Kirschten's white Pontiac G6. The gunman didn't say anything and walked away after the shooting, Cmdr. Tyree Jones said.
“We’re still in the preliminary stages. We’re not sure if they know one another or if there is any type of affiliation, but based on preliminary indications, this just seems to be possibly an individual just walked up to the vehicle and fired a shot,” Jones said.
WAPT-TV Kirschten drove down the street after she was shot, police said. Her car came to a stop at Fortification Street near the Interstate 55 exit. She died at the scene, police said.
Jones said the passenger in Kirschten's car described the shooter as a black man wearing dark-colored clothing, possibly with a hood.
Kirschten had just started taking classes this week, and according to a coworker, had planned to leave her job at Twin Peaks in Jackson in two weeks.
will whites please just move out of these black areas?...please, you not live there....
you can not trust them...sorry, its true....stay away from areas where they live....its just the truth...
If it weren’t for the race baiters we could probably do something about the gangs too.
She was leaving work at a Twin Peaks restaurant near the interstate:
6010 N Hwy 55, Jackson, MS 39211 is where she works and had just left.
This is any city in the south and many cities in the north (Chicago, NY, etc.) with black populations.
Nothing on the national news about it though. Reverse the races and not only would it be front page news Trump would be getting the blame.
Sadly, that was my guess just from the headline.
No Go Zones Do not belong in America. Terrify them by standing up and killing them, if they attack you. An attack can be adjudicated.
Just like George Zimmerman did?
Prosecutors are just waiting for a white person to shoot a black so they can score political points - locally and nationally - going after them. We see it again and again.
At what point can you shoot? Once they have a gun pointed at you? What if you shoot and they don’t have a gun? What if there are 2 or 3 of them all armed?
Not a lot of good options out there other than to start driving bullet proof cars.
You just made a good commercial for CCW insurance.
