Bryant Breland, a 42-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on May 31, 2025, outside a Family Dollar in the 600 block of Cherry Hill Road in Baltimore. Surveillance footage captured an argument between Breland and a Family Dollar employee, identified as 39-year-old Braxton Day, that quickly escalated; Day allegedly drew a handgun and fired, leaving Breland with a fatal gunshot wound. A Baltimore police officer on patrol heard the shot and found Breland, who was taken to a hospital and later died.

Investigators say Day fled, discarded a weapon under a nearby car and hid a jacket and a bag in a cellar on a neighboring road. Police recovered .40-caliber shell casings, live rounds and a magazine. Still images from the surveillance video were shown to witnesses, who identified Day as the shooter. The U.S. Marshals Service assisted in the search before Day surrendered on July 19, 2025. He has been charged with manslaughter, firearm use in a felony crime of violence and having a handgun on his person.

Does anyone have information about the confrontation outside the Family Dollar or saw events on Cherry Hill Road that morning?
