26-year-old woman shot dead at gas pump, has car stolen

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- 26-year-old Sheresa 'Shay' Moore was shot and killed on Wednesday, August 7th at a Citgo station near Sherman and Capitol as she filled her car with gas.

Family members say Moore, a local rap artist, was on her way home from the studio the night she was shot.

"She is smiling down to all of us right now," said Moore's aunt, Joyce Nelson. "It's devastating to us all and it hurts so bad."

Surveillance video from the Citgo station shows Moore pumping gas when she is approached by a man. Moore backs up before she is shot and falls to the ground. The suspect then drives off in her vehicle.

"I'm thinking it's a carjacking. A lot of us were thinking it was set up for someone to just single her out," said Nelson.

Moore's friends and family have many unanswered questions, mainly why someone would shoot their loved one so brazenly.

"She was a beautiful young lady and kind and nice to everyone so I couldn't understand why someone would just kill her like that," said Nelson.

Lekeysha Wells, the victim's cousin, says Moore will be remembered for her passion for music.

"That's all she believed in, that's all she worked on," said Wells.

No one has been taken into custody in connection with the shooting. Loved ones are asking the public for help.

"Anybody out here, anybody at the gas station that night, even if they are scared, you don't have to say a name just please help," said Wells.

The family will hold a vigil to honor Moore on Saturday, August 10th at 3 p.m. near Sherman and Capitol, where the shooting happened.
