On December 11, 2022, Branden Barrett, a 34-year-old Black/African American man from South Weymouth, was shot outside a Tremont Street hotel in Boston’s Theater District. The shooting happened about 9:12 p.m. after what was described as an argument involving three men; the sound of gunfire sent people running from the busy street.

First responders found Barrett on the sidewalk with life-threatening injuries. He was taken to a local hospital and died on December 20, 2022; an autopsy ruled his death a homicide. Boston Police Homicide Detectives have been examining surveillance footage and physical evidence and asked the public to contact the homicide unit or CrimeStoppers with tips.

No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. Does anyone have information about that night or saw anything near the hotel on Tremont Street around 9:12 p.m. on December 11, 2022?
