Bobby Martez Baker was 18 when he was shot and killed after a dispute over a video game controller in the Wenonah neighborhood of Birmingham, Alabama. The shooting took place in the early hours of Friday, October 2, 2015. Baker suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and died after being taken to UAB Hospital.

Baker’s attacker was reported to be his first cousin; that relative was taken into custody by Birmingham police. This is a stark example of a household or family disagreement that escalated to fatal violence.
