Family of Zondra Garner asks for help paying for funeral

KSDK -- A fund has been set up to pay for the funeral of a woman who accidentally shot herself in East St. Louis.

22-year-old Zondra Garner's gun went off while she was getting out of a vehicle. She was carrying food in both of her hands when it happened. A bullet hit her in the face, killing her.

The shooting happened earlier this month outside the Gompers Housing Project on North 6th Street.

Garner was the cousin of Jaimaca McDaniel, one of the three women shot to death at the Crown Food Mart in East St. Louis Saturday night.

Donations can be made at any US Bank.

Funeral services will be Friday, November 20 at noon. It will be held at Union Full Gospel Baptist Church, 2402 Tutor Avenue in East St. Louis.
