Braylon Smith, 25, was killed in a drive-by shooting on May 15, 2022, at an apartment complex on Munger Avenue in Old East Dallas. Police say a gray Nissan Maxima drove through the complex in the early morning and shots were fired from the vehicle. Smith was standing outside when he was struck and later died at a hospital; a 31-year-old man was wounded in the leg and survived.

The Dallas Police Department’s Homicide Unit is investigating. Detective Christopher Anderson is leading the case. Investigators have not identified suspects or made arrests. Authorities are offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment and are asking anyone with tips to contact police or Crime Stoppers.

Braylon’s death has deeply affected his family, friends, and the community. Does anyone in Old East Dallas remember seeing a gray Nissan Maxima in the complex that morning or have information that could help the investigation?
