Brett Tyler Love, 19, of Springfield, Ohio, died of gunshot wounds on July 25, 2021, at Miami Valley Hospital. Born August 31, 2001, he was described as a young mechanic and active in the Clark County BOYAC group; he had chosen to be an organ donor.

Authorities say the shooting occurred on South Center Street in Springfield while Brett was driving. Witnesses reported bullets coming from a gold Chevy, and surveillance video reportedly shows Joshua Martin, 21, firing from the passenger seat. Martin was later charged with murder, felonious assault, and a firearm charge in connection with Brett’s death; he was already incarcerated on separate firearm-related charges when the new counts were filed. Martin initially pleaded not guilty and was arraigned in April 2023.

Brett’s death has had a deep effect on his family and the community; his legacy is remembered by those who knew him. Does anyone have information about Brett’s movements that night or surveillance that could help clarify what happened?
