A 41-year-old woman has died following a shooting that occurred after a brief altercation over a simple act of courtesy at a shopping center in southwest Dallas, Texas.
According to police and court documents, the incident happened on Tuesday afternoon when the victim, identified as Cecilia Simpson, became upset with another woman, Keona Hampton, 22, for not saying “thank you” after she held the door open for her.
Dallas Police say the two women exchanged words before the argument escalated. A witness told investigators that Simpson, along with another woman, later saw Hampton again at a nearby store within the same shopping complex. The confrontation reportedly resumed inside the store, prompting employees to ask both women to leave.
