On the evening of August 17, 2017, in Kansas City, Kansas, 15-year-old Brandon Browne was sitting on a porch near 20th and North Tremont when multiple gunshots rang out. He was found with a fatal gunshot wound to his chest and was pronounced dead at the scene. Neighbors later said gunfire was alarmingly frequent in the area. The previous day the same residence had been shot at; no one was injured then.

Brandon was Black/African American and 15 years old. His family had already lost a child to gun violence when his sister, 15-year-old Brannae Browne, was killed in a drive-by shooting on September 2, 2016. Investigators believe Brandon’s death was tied to retaliatory violence between groups in the neighborhood, but despite a police investigation and public appeals, few tips came in and no suspects have been publicly identified or arrested.

Does anyone have information about the 2016 and 2017 shootings or about activity around 20th and North Tremont at that time?
