FedEx Fires Church’s Chicken Shooting Suspect


Shelby County Sheriff’s Office

A manhunt is underway for a suspect who fatally shot a single mom at a Church’s Chicken restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Monica Williams, 45. She is charged with fatally shooting Church’s Chicken worker Anitra West, 48, during a dispute over a food order on Monday, July 8.

Williams pulled into the Church’s Chicken drive-thru at 2963 Park Avenue in Orange Mound just before 9 p.m. An argument ensued between Williams and West in the drive-thru.

After Williams drove off, West went outside “to get some air,” according to police.

Moments later, co-workers heard gunfire. Police found West suffering from a gunshot wound outside the restaurant. She died at a local hospital.

Police say the two women were strangers to each other.

One of the first places police began searching for Williams was at FedEx, where she worked delivering packages.

A FedEx spokesperson said Williams was fired immediately after she was named a suspect in the shooting.

“We extend our deepest sympathies to the friends and family of Anitra West as they mourn the loss of a loved one. We can confirm Monica Williams is no longer employed by FedEx, FedEx Media Relations said in a statement.

Family members described West as a shining light and a beautiful soul.

“I’m a better man because of her,” Loranzo West, her ex-husband and high school sweetheart, told a reporter. “That’s what will be missed the most, because everywhere she went, she impacted everybody.”

According to criminal records obtained by Action News 5, Williams served three years in prison following a conviction for aggravated assault in 2009.

She was charged with stabbing her boyfriend’s child’s mother and hitting her with a tree branch.
