In the early morning hours of November 28, 2017, the life of 28-year-old Tanna Moyer, a Caucasian female, was cut short in Kansas City, Kansas. The tragic discovery of her death began with a routine traffic stop in the neighboring city of Mission. Police pulled over a speeding vehicle and found Moyer inside, suffering from a fatal gunshot wound. The driver of the car, an acquaintance of Moyer's, was reportedly rushing her to the hospital in a desperate attempt to save her life.
Investigators determined that the shooting had not occurred where the car was stopped, but rather in Kansas City, Kansas, near the intersection of Seventh Street Trafficway and Armstrong Avenue. The Kansas City, Kansas Police Department's Criminal Investigations Division took the lead on the case, treating it as a homicide. In the immediate aftermath, authorities appealed to the public for any information that could shed light on the circumstances leading to Moyer's death.
Despite the public call for assistance and an ongoing investigation into the homicide, details regarding any arrests or the identification of a suspect or suspects in the death of Tanna Moyer have not been made publicly available. The case remains a painful and unresolved chapter for her family and friends, who were left to mourn the sudden and violent loss of a young woman. Her obituary remembered her as a kind-hearted individual with a deep love for animals.
