She arrived at about 3:51 a.m., found a friend injured outside, and confronted 25-year-old Jazzmyn Watford at the apartment.

During the confrontation the apartment door latch was broken and Watford shot Brown. Officers found Brown with gunshot wounds to her chest and arm; she was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival. Watford was arrested at the scene and charged with first-degree murder, armed criminal action, and second-degree domestic assault.

Brown’s family and friends remember her as vibrant and compassionate who died trying to protect a friend. If anyone witnessed the events that night or has information that could help, please come forward.
