On July 23, 2011, 16-year-old Maria Lynn Ta was tragically killed in a mass shooting at Forum Roller World in Grand Prairie, Texas. The incident occurred during a birthday party for Tan Do's son, where he opened fire on his estranged wife, Trini Do, and her family members. Lynn Ta, along with her sister Michelle Ta , brother Hien Ta , and sister-in-law Thuy Nguyen , were among the victims.
Tan Do, who was 35 years old, also died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The shooting was the result of ongoing marital problems between Tan Do and Trini Do. Trini Do had previously filed for a protective order against her husband due to a history of violence and threats, but later withdrew the request. The couple had been experiencing significant marital strife, and Tan Do had a history of violent behavior, including threatening Trini with a gun.
The tragic event shocked the community and left many grieving for the loss of the young victims. The families and friends of those who perished continue to remember and honor their memories.
