On July 20, 2025, 35-year-old Byron A. Garrett and his 32-year-old brother Taylor Garrett were shot and killed during an altercation at a convenience store and gas station near East Truman Road and Brooklyn Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. The brothers had encountered 27-year-old Emanuel Hernandez after a confrontation that may have begun as a road-rage incident. Surveillance footage and witness accounts describe a physical fight outside by the pumps, then a second confrontation inside the store.

Reports say Hernandez drew a firearm and shot both brothers, and video reportedly shows him firing as they tried to retreat and while they were on the ground. Additional allegations state Hernandez struck Byron in the face with the weapon after the shooting. Both brothers were pronounced dead at the scene. Emanuel Hernandez was taken into custody and charged by prosecutors in Jackson County with one count of voluntary manslaughter and one count of armed criminal action; filings referenced Missouri self-defense law as a complicating factor.

Did anyone witness the confrontation at the gas pumps or have footage from nearby that could help clarify what happened?
