Brianna Sanders, 21, was killed in Milwaukee on February 25, 2024, after a domestic dispute near 51st and Center Streets turned into gunfire. Family said she had been called to the scene by a male cousin to help with a fight. Multiple people drew firearms and exchanged shots; Brianna was struck and died at the scene.

The shooting was a multi-victim incident. A 28-year-old man, Sam Hunt, related to Sanders by marriage, was critically wounded and later died at a hospital. A 39-year-old also died after being hospitalized. A 23-year-old was shot and expected to survive; that surviving 23-year-old was taken into custody. A 25-year-old was also arrested. Authorities say they are not actively seeking other suspects and the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office is reviewing potential charges.

Family and friends held a vigil for Brianna, mourning the loss of a young mother and condemning the gun violence. If anyone knew Brianna, witnessed the events near 51st and Center on February 25, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
