Strip club worker fired upon 50 times as she came home from job, Texas sheriff says

>The Charlotte Observer 3 hrs ago

A mother returning home from her job at a gentleman’s club was killed early Tuesday

morning when she was shot at 50 times, according to Texas authorities.

The woman, identified by friends to KHOU as 31-year-old Valeesha Duncan, died at the

scene after she exited her car in west Harris County, Maj. Susan Cotter said. Investigators

determined an unknown suspect got out of a dark-colored sedan and fired upon Duncan

as she pulled into her garage, according to Cotter and Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.

Deputies are investigating the shooting and Gonzalez has asked nearby residents to check

their surveillance cameras. Information on a suspect has not been publicly disclosed.

No one was at the home at the time of the 5:30 a.m. shooting, Cotter said. Deputies

discovered Duncan’s body in the garage next to her car, which had bullet holes in the

windows. She was “shot multiple times,” according to Cotter.

Duncan was returning home from her job at Club Onyx, an area strip club, according

to the Houston Chronicle. She was the mother of an 11-year-old boy.

The boy’s father, Timothy Richard, is questioning why Duncan was killed.

“It’s got to be something else behind this. She’s not like that,” Richard told KTRK.

“She don’t get into any altercations. Like I said, she’s a very sweet person.”

A neighbor who lives in the area, Giana Delaney, heard the gunfire and said she was scared

to look out the window because of the uncertainty about the shooter, KHOU reported.

Richard said their son has not processed the shooting death of his mother.

“He just told me has has mixed emotions right,” Duncan told the Chronicle. “I mean, he’s a kid.”

50 shots fired in killing of Harris County mom, one of four homicides overnight

>Aug. 17, 2021

Fifty rounds rang out just before dawn Tuesday in a northwest Harris County neighborhood.

The jarring noise around 5 a.m. was unmistakable to some residents in the 18000 block of Appletree

Hill Lane, near Katy, as gunfire. Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputies soon found 31-year-old Valeesha

Duncan — a mother of an 11-year-old boy — shot to death in her garage.

The shooter in a dark-colored sedan caught Duncan as she returned home from a night working at

Club Onyx, a Galleria-area strip club, according to authorities.

“Fifty shots,” wept Timothy Richard, the father of Duncan’s son. The number of gunshots shocked him.

Who would want to hurt her, he wondered. “There’s got to be something else behind this.”

The shooting was among four deaths that authorities in the Houston area rushed to starting Monday

night, when Houston Police Department officers investigated a stabbing around 9 p.m. in the 8300

block of Willow Place Drive.

Police said they believe Ericka McDonald, 29, stabbed her mother to death and wounded another relative.

The woman has since been charged with murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Two hours later, in the county, a man shot and killed his sister’s ex-boyfriend, Romance Daniels, during a

fight at her apartment at 910 Cypress Station Drive. Investigators are considering that the shooting was

self-defense.

A Harris County grand jury will later determine whether the brother will face charges.

Deputies rushed to another fatal shooting around 4:45 a.m. in the 11000 block of Holly Hill Lane in

northwest Harris County after a woman said someone shot her son, Keith Long, 30, to death as he

checked on their barking dogs.

She found him at the front door and tried to save him. No suspects have been apprehended.

The shooting on Appletree Hill Lane capped the deadly night.

Richard called Duncan “a real southern girl” from Louisiana. The two had known each other since high

school in Rosenberg and were planning this week to buy back-to-school supplies for their child.

Their son was not home with Duncan at the time of the shooting, Richard said.

“It hasn’t hit him yet,” Richard said. “He just told me that he has mixed emotions right. I mean, he’s a kid.”

Police said they believe the shooter opened fire on Duncan as she got out of her vehicle. She was struck

multiple times and several shell casings were found near her body, authorities said.

Investigators went door-to-door checking for possible surveillance footage of the incident, while Sheriff

Ed Gonzalez also pleaded for residents to check their cameras.

Duncan’s death marks at least 84 homicides in unincorporated Harris County. Last year, 123 people were

killed in what authorities deemed homicides.

In Houston, police are investigating at least 280 homicides — more than triple the county’s number.

The deaths are a 30 percent increase from the 216 people killed at this point last year.

The boy’s father, Timothy Richard, is questioning why Duncan was killed.

“It’s got to be something else behind this. She’s not like that,” Richard told KTRK.

“She don’t get into any altercations. Like I said, she’s a very sweet person.”

A neighbor who lives in the area, Giana Delaney, heard the gunfire and said she was scared

to look out the window because of the uncertainty about the shooter, KHOU reported.

Richard said their son has not processed the shooting death of his mother.

“He just told me has has mixed emotions right,” Duncan told the Chronicle. “I mean, he’s a kid.”
