Brayden Becker, 23, was killed during a home invasion at the Continental Apartments on West Buffalo Jones Avenue in Garden City, Kansas, on July 16, 2025. Around 5:30 a.m. residents heard a loud banging at the front door; witnesses say Becker opened the door slightly and multiple people forced their way inside. In the chaos that followed Becker was shot; two other young men in the apartment, ages 19 and 17, were also wounded.

A private vehicle transported Becker and the 17-year-old to St. Catherine Hospital while Finney County EMS took the 19-year-old. All three were later transferred to a hospital in Wichita. Becker died of his injuries; the other victims were reported in serious to critical condition. Garden City police identified and arrested three suspects: 19-year-old Michael Lara, 16-year-old Ivan Lara, and 15-year-old Isaac Lara, and officials said they did not believe the shooting was random.

Does anyone have information about the night at Continental Apartments or knew Brayden and can share what he was like?
