Margarite Evans was 19 and a resident of Los Angeles when she was shot and killed on March 2, 2014. Her death was one of several violent acts carried out during a short spree in South Los Angeles attributed to Robert Lawrence Ransom Jr., who was 34 at the time.

In the days after Evans was killed, Ransom allegedly set a house fire in which 28-year-old Gisella Yauli and her 1-year-old son died from smoke inhalation; Yauli was found bound with tape on her face. Two weeks later he reportedly abducted a 16-year-old girl, assaulted her and doused her with gasoline inside a van; the girl escaped and Ransom was arrested about a week after that escape. He was charged with multiple counts, including two counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.

If anyone knew Margarite Evans or has information about her life or the events of March 2, 2014, please share what you can with investigators.
