On November 8, 2021, inside an apartment complex in north Phoenix, 23-year-old Black man Martin Louis was shot and killed during a violent intrusion that also claimed the life of 28-year-old Trystan Benallie. A two-year-old child who was present was physically unharmed.

Trystan had previously obtained an order of protection against Love-Mason, who reportedly violated that order and had been released from custody about ten days before the shooting. Investigators recovered 13 shell casings at the scene. Love-Mason fled but was later located in Tempe after surveillance showed him riding light rail; he was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder, burglary, and aggravated domestic violence and held on two-million-dollar bond. Martin’s family remembered him for making music and his sense of humor.

If anyone knew Martin, Trystan, or has information about what happened that day, please share what you know.
