Austin Evans was 19 when he was killed inside his Phoenix apartment in the early morning hours of September 25, 2020. Friends had gathered when Evans showed them a gun. During the interaction, 19-year-old Shekeedren Bryant began handling the firearm; it discharged and a single shot struck Evans. He died at the scene.

Bryant initially fled the apartment but later returned and contacted police to admit his involvement. He was booked into the Maricopa County Jail and charged with negligent homicide in connection with Evans’s death.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who were near the apartment that morning who can add details about what happened?
