Sunday, September 14, 2003



LOS ANGELES  — An older sister of tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams was fatally shot early today in Compton, the sheriff's department reported.

The 31-year-old woman, whose first name was not released, was gunned down about 1 a.m. today in the 1100 block of East Greenleaf Boulevard, said Deputy Richard Pena.

Deputies believe at least one suspect in the case may be barricaded near the same location, Pena said.

A sheriff's Special Weapons Team was at the scene.
