Shortly after 2:48 a.m. on May 12, 2025, a domestic dispute in a laundromat parking lot in Hammond, Louisiana, ended with the fatal shooting of 23-year-old Bradley Blunt. Blunt was parked at The Soap Opera laundromat on North Morrison Boulevard with 22-year-old Raleign Honor and two toddlers in the backseat after Honor had contacted police for help retrieving belongings from an ex-boyfriend’s home. Police had advised Honor to pull over instead of continuing to the residence.

An exchange of words escalated and Franklin allegedly produced two firearms and opened fire. Blunt was struck multiple times and later died at North Oaks Medical Center. Honor and one of the two-year-old children were wounded with non-life-threatening injuries. Franklin also sustained a gunshot wound, sought treatment at the same hospital, and was taken into custody.

Franklin was charged with one count of first-degree murder, three counts of attempted first-degree murder, and illegal discharge of a firearm. Anderson was charged with one count of principal to first-degree murder and three counts of principal to attempted first-degree murder for allegedly driving her brother to the scene. The Hammond Police Department’s investigation remains ongoing.

Did anyone witness the confrontation at the laundromat or the moments just before the shooting?
