Police in Mobile, Alabama arrested a 27-year-old woman who allegedly gunned down her ex-husband and then dropped his body off at a hospital.
Hospital staff called 911 about a deceased Black man who had been dropped off at around 1 a.m. by a Black woman with braided hair with red tips, driving in a silver Lexus SUV.
The woman was later identified as Genesis Tanksley, the ex-wife of Lazarus Tanksley.
Police went to Tanksley’s residence where they spoke with a witness who said he helped the Black woman with braided hair load Lazarus’s body into the car on Jan. 1.
“[A second] witness stated that she traveled to the victim’s residence with [Genesis Tanksley],” the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office said.
“She stated Genesis and the victim were arguing and then she heard a gunshot. She fled the scene on foot and has not seen or spoken to Genesis [Tanksley] since the shooting.”
Genesis Tanksley was arrested on New Year’s Day on one count of murder. She and Lazarus were arrested last October following a domestic violence incident.
