Arleigh Alexzander Bryant, 37, was shot and killed in the early-morning hours of July 13, 2025, on North College Street in Uptown Charlotte. Officers working off-duty in the area responded around 2 a.m. and found Bryant fatally wounded amid a rush of gunfire that left five others injured. Detectives from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department’s Homicide Unit processed the scene and seized multiple firearms; reporting from the scene noted more than seven guns were recovered.

Within 24 hours two men were arrested on gun charges in a fast-moving sweep, and court filings later linked them to the case. Those early arrests did not resolve who fired the fatal shot. Five days after the killing, police announced a 16-year-old had been arrested by Statesville Police and was being held pending extradition to face charges of murder and conspiracy to commit murder. The investigation included tracing movements and vehicles seen fleeing the block and soliciting tips under a public case number.

Does anyone in Charlotte remember activity or vehicles on North College Street around 2 a.m. that night?
