Gaylon Lavon Davis, 53, was shot and killed on April 3, 2025, in Dallas, Texas. Officers found Davis, a Black male, with gunshot wounds at about 10:20 a.m. at 2800 Holmes Street near South Boulevard; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Police initially had limited information and opened an investigation to identify potential suspects.

By April 24, Dallas police arrested 28-year-old Travoy Brown and charged him with murder; his bond was set at $200,000. The next day two more men — 23-year-old Charles Banks and 27-year-old Patrick Banks — were arrested and also charged with murder. All three were booked into the Dallas County Jail. Authorities have not disclosed the relationship between Davis and the suspects or any motive, and it remains unclear whether the suspects knew each other or had prior interactions with Davis as the investigation continues.

Does anyone have information about Davis, his movements that morning, or contacts in the Holmes Street/South Boulevard area?
