Garrett Gamond-Hill, 23, was shot and killed at his Austin home on Kenyon Drive on March 25, 2021. Witnesses told police someone knocked, spoke with Garrett for about five minutes, then a gunman fired; Garrett was found with severe gunshot injuries and pronounced dead at the scene. The suspect fled in a vehicle. Witnesses said the brief conversation did not seem heated but the words were not overheard.

Police described the suspect as a Black male in his 20s with a thin build wearing a dark hoodie, but the APD has not released a detailed description and no arrests have been announced. The shooting was Austin’s 17th homicide that year and temporarily put nearby Odom Elementary School in secure mode. Garrett was survived by his mother Stacey Taylor, brother Warrick Gamond, and grandfather Richard Gamond; he was predeceased by his father Stacey Gamond and brother Dylan Hill. The investigation remains open; does anyone have information about that knock at the door or the vehicle that left the scene?
