Witnesses reported hearing a barrage of gunfire, estimating 15 to 20 shots, and described the block as an area where people often gather at night and gun violence has been a recurring problem. No suspects have been identified or arrested; Detective H. Monegro of the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office is leading the investigation. Tips can be submitted anonymously through Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers, and a reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest.

Bryant worked as an independent contractor and was remembered by friends and family as hardworking. His funeral service was scheduled at Seller Memorial United Methodist Church. If anyone has information about the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
