Kennedi Eunece Braziel was 18 when she was killed in a mass shooting on June 12, 2022, in San Antonio, Texas. Kennedi, a high school student and mother of a 9-month-old son, was in a car near North Star Mall with two friends celebrating a graduation when gunmen opened fire, discharging as many as 50 rounds. Kennedi and 19-year-old D’Yani Thomas, identified as the driver and front-seat passenger, were killed; the third passenger survived but was critically injured.

Dozens of shell casings were recovered and investigators say a weapon consistent with an AK-47 was used. The Castle Hills Police Department has said it has no clear motive and is reviewing surveillance video while asking the public for tips. Kennedi’s mother Krystal Braziel and grandfather Unice Braziel have publicly mourned her and urged stricter controls on combat-style weapons.

If anyone saw the vehicle or suspicious activity on the access road of Loop 410 near Blanco around 5 a.m. on June 12, 2022, please come forward with information.
