Second Teen Indicted For Fatal Drive-By Shooting Of 70-Year-Old Woman
August 16, 2024
A second teen has been indicted for first degree premeditated murder for a July drive-by shooting that took the life of a Pensacola woman.
A grand jury issued the indictment against Terrance Gross, Jr., for the drive-by shooting that occurred at 4260 Erress Blvd on June 24, 2024, which killed 70-year-old Myra Hayes.
Gross is now charged with first degree premeditated murder, shooting at or into a building, fleeing or attempting to elude a law enforcement officer at high speed and possession of a firearm by a convicted delinquent under 24 years of age.
Last month, 19-year-old Jaquaris Ethridge, was indicted on the same charges.
A high speed chase occurred after Hayes was shot.
The chase ended with a PIT maneuver on the Highway 90 bridge over Escambia Bay. Three suspects — Ethridge, Terrance Gross Jr. and Trevion Moton — jumped off the bridge. Morton died from the jump, and Ethridge was captured shortly thereafter. Gross Jr. fled and was captured in Webb County, Texas and extradited back to Escambia County.

I agree the father should be charged and several charges come to mind. What kind of “father” indicates it is ok to take a woman’s life in such a horrible way that she never imagined or expected? Bless her heart. Both the father and son will be down there in the abyss looking up wishing they didn’t do this. Too late. You murderous bunch think it’s hot now?!
Has a motive ever been established as to the motivation behind this senseless shooting?
JTV: Daddy of course knew Nothing, Nothing, Nothing! He just wanted to go on a spur of the moment trip with his son to Mexico.
Come on Sheriff Simmons, the daddy that hauled his murderous son to the Mexican border should be arrested and charged.
I miss ole Sparky. YES, the death penalty should be the goal.
