Braxtyn Loyd was 27 when he was fatally shot inside a North 3rd Street residence in Garden City, Kansas, in the early morning of March 6, 2023. The argument reportedly escalated when Loyd allegedly produced a firearm and threatened other family members. Another person at the residence shot Loyd during the confrontation.

First responders arrived just before 5:30 a.m. and found Loyd with a gunshot wound. He was taken to St. Catherine Hospital and later transferred to Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, where he died the same day. The Garden City Police Department investigated and presented the matter to the Finney County Attorney’s Office, which concluded the shooter acted in self-defense; no arrests or charges were announced and the case was closed.

Does anyone have information about Loyd, his movements that night, or the household where this occurred?
