COMPTON, Calif. - An older sister of tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams was shot to death early Sunday, authorities said.
Yetunde Price, 31, was shot shortly after midnight in the Los Angeles suburb following a "confrontation" with some residents, Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Scott Butler said.
No arrests were immediately made.
Price was with a man in a sports utility vehicle when the two became involved in a confrontation, Deputy Richard Pena said. He did not have details of the confrontation.
Price was shot in the upper torso. Deputies on patrol heard gunshots and went to the scene, where they found Price.
Price, of Corona, was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Price was one of five Williams sisters who spent their early years in Compton, a crime- and poverty-ridden community.

Though this is a tragedy which could also be placed in the Problems Sabla, I decided to mention it in the Sport Corner as it is linked to the two sisters and great tennis players, Venus and Serena Williams.
Could this fatal shoting be the cause of the growing success the two tennis players continue to experience on the court, or what Price simply at the wrong place, at the wrong time?...
