BATON ROUGE - A former school employee was murdered after driving her friend to a usually safe neighborhood Tuesday night.

Police say the shots were fired around 8 p.m. on Brookshire Avenue near Havenwood Drive. Baton Rouge police say Janessa Hartley was dropping off her friend at the time of the encounter.

After Hartley came to a stop, the gunman reportedly approached the two and tried to open the vehicle. After failing to open the locked door, the person apparently opened fire and struck Hartley.

The shooter then reportedly fled the scene.

Staff at St. Thomas More in Baton Rouge say Hartley worked there as a pre-school assistant up until about five years ago. They said she left her job to spend more time with her family.

Police say there are no known suspects nor a clear motive at this time. The investigation is ongoing.

Crime records suggest criminal activity is uncommon in the area.

Anyone with information on the case is urged to call police at (225)389-4869.
