Brian Walsh, 40, was shot to death at his Deltona home on Fountain Road around noon on March 11, 2017. According to investigators, two men confronted Walsh in the backyard and he was struck multiple times in the torso and chest. Deputies arrived within minutes; Walsh was found unconscious and later died at a nearby hospital. His three children were inside the house at the time and narrowly missed witnessing the shooting.

The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office has said Walsh and the shooter were likely acquaintances, but the motive remains unclear. Authorities offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. A separate development: 25-year-old Charlie Martin of DeLand pleaded guilty to being an accessory to the murder and was sentenced to 15 years in Florida state prison. The primary shooter has not been identified or apprehended.

Anyone who knew Brian, the men he associated with, or who has information about the March 11 confrontation is asked to contact investigators.
