On the evening of July 29, 2026, 21-year-old Kahil Berry was shot during a dispute near the 2200 block of East 74th Street on Cleveland’s east side. The argument, described as over property, involved several people and escalated to gunfire. Berry was found with a critical gunshot wound and taken to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment.

Berry died of his injuries two days later, on July 31, 2026; his death was ruled a homicide. A 36-year-old man who was also shot that night was taken to the hospital in a private vehicle and was reported in serious condition. The Cleveland Police Homicide Unit opened an investigation and, as of early August 2026, had not announced any arrests or identified suspects.

Who in the neighborhood might have seen the dispute or the people leaving the scene and can provide information to help the investigation?
