Dallas police appeal to public for help in tracking suspected gunman caught on camera
Dallas police say was shot and killed in broad daylight nearly a year ago.
Authorities are asking for the public’s help in solving the murder of an up-and-coming model in a Dallas neighborhood last year.
Ja Meesia Anderson-Busby, 24, was shot in broad daylight in the 9800 block of Grove Oaks Boulevard on April 10, 2022.

Investigators determined that an "unknown suspect" shot Anderson-Busy. Her family told police that she had no enemies.
"Ja Meesia Anderson-Busby was outside playing with a friend of hers in the front yard and enjoying a nice sunny day when she observed somebody down the street … kind of looking strange," Dallas Police Detective Reggie Woods told FOX 4.

That’s when Anderson-Busby and her friend started running back toward the house as the suspect ran toward them with a gun, authorities said.
"The suspect intentionally ran towards her because there were actually three people standing out in the front yard: a friend of hers and a relative, and he bypassed both of them to run towards Miss Anderson-Busy and shot her," Woods said.
