Deputies: Woman found shot to death inside Deltona home

DELTONA, Fla. — A woman was found shot to death in a Deltona home Monday evening.

The Volusia County Sheriff's Office identified the woman as Monquavia F. Hamilton, 25.

A man who was performing work on the house at 2008 Dearing Avenue discovered Hamilton's body around 5:30 p.m.

The front door was ajar, the man said, and after calling out several times, he went in to check if anyone was inside, according to deputies.

Investigators said they are looking for a suspect—but did not have a description to release.

Deputies did not say if they have identified a suspect or if they know what led up to the shooting.

Investigators believe Hamilton was targeted and the shooting is an isolated incident.

Anyone with information is urged to call the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office at (386) 736-5961
