BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – Burial services for Sincere Pierce ended abruptly Saturday afternoon when an unknown gunman fired a single shot and struck the teenager's mother.
The gunfire came as guests were paying their last respects to the 18-year-old, one of two teens killed Nov. 13 by a Brevard County deputy in Cocoa. Funeral services for the other teen, 16-year-old Angelo Crooms, were held Nov. 21.
As the pastor finished his prayers at Riverview Memorial Gardens and Pierce's friends and loved ones placed flowers on his casket, a loud pop was heard.
The single gunshot was followed by stunned silence before Quasheda Pierce yelled that she had been hit. Mourners were at first slow to react before realizing what had occurred. The crowd of about 50 people panicked and left the cemetery as friends and family of Quasheda Pierce attended to her injury.
She was helped into a minivan before ambulances and EMTs arrived. The nature and severity of her injuries were not immediately known. Some at the scene said she had been shot in the leg.

Five to 10 minutes after the gunshot, Brevard County Sheriff's Office deputies arrived, carrying rifles in response to multiple 911 calls. Detectives and crime scene investigators remained at the cemetery throughout the afternoon.
The initial investigation suggests the shot was an accidental discharge from a gun carried by a 16-year-old attending the service, according to WKMG News 6, citing the Brevard County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's office said the bullet penetrated the 16-year-old's leg and then struck Quasheda Pierce, WKMG reported.
The sheriff's office has not responded to numerous requests left by Florida Today for information.
Some witnesses said the gunshot came from behind a nearby tree line where guests, including a mother holding a baby, were standing in the shade.
No further details were immediately available on who may have carried out the shooting or why.
The Nov. 13 shooting deaths of Pierce and Crooms had left their families and the public with unanswered questions about why Brevard County Sheriff's Office deputy Jafet Santiago-Miranda fired multiple shots into the car when the teens didn't pull over. Ivey had said the deputies thought the vehicle might have been stolen, but the teens' families and lawyer, Natalie Jackson, said they had permission to use the car and called it a case of mistaken identity.
The teens' deaths captured national interest, with well-known civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump working on behalf of the families in what he called a bid for justice.
