In Loving Memory of Lexus Antrom

In Loving Memory of Lexus Antrom

The community of Columbus is mourning the heartbreaking loss of 28-year-old Lexus Antrom, whose life was tragically cut short in an early morning shooting that has left family, friends, and neighbors in deep sorrow.

Authorities say officers responded to a call on the 4500 block of Gardiner Drive, near Celia Drive, on Thursday morning after reports of gunfire. When police arrived, they found Lexus suffering from gunshot wounds. Despite the urgency of the response, she was pronounced dead at the scene, according to . he Muscogee County Coroner’s Officer man at the scene was also injured and transported to a local hospital for treatment.

As investigators work to piece together what happened, Lexus’s body has been sent to the Georgia Bureau of investigation Crime Lab in Decatur, Georgia for an autopsy. At this time, authorities have not released information about a suspect or the circumstances that led to the shooting, leaving many questions unanswered and a community longing for clarity and justice.

But beyond the headlines and the ongoing investigation, Lexus Antrom was more than a victim of violence. She was a daughter, a friend, a loved one — a young woman with dreams, laughter, and a future that should have stretched far beyond her 28 years. Those who knew her will remember her presence, her personality, and the moments she shared that now become cherished memories.

Her passing is a painful reminder of how fragile life can be and how deeply violence impacts families and neighborhoods. In the quiet that follows such tragedy, what remains are the stories told by those who loved her — stories of her kindness, her strength, her smile, and the role she played in the lives around her.

As the investigation continues, the Columbus community stands in solidarity with Lexus’s family, offering prayers, support, and comfort during an unimaginably difficult time. The hope now is for answers, accountability, and healing.

May Lexus Antrom be remembered not for the way her life ended, but for the life she lived and the love she gave. May her memory be a blessing to all who knew her, and may her family find strength in the embrace of community and the enduring power of remembrance.
