On May 25, 2015, Joel Branch, 47, and Gerald Morris were shot and killed on the 5300 block of Groveland Drive in the Valencia Park neighborhood of San Diego. The men were on Branch’s front patio during a Memorial Day gathering of family and friends when gunfire erupted. A third man was also shot nearby, possibly by the same assailants.

Witnesses described two Black males on foot as the attackers, but no identities have been established. The San Diego Police Department and Crime Stoppers have offered a reward and asked the public for help, yet the case remains unsolved and no arrests have been announced. Branch and Morris’s families continue to seek answers and justice.

If anyone was at that gathering or saw activity on Groveland Drive that day, can you share information with investigators?
