Bryant Lee, an 18-year-old high school quarterback is dead after leaving a graduation party. Sadly, Bryant Lee won’t be making it to his own graduation at McKinley High School.
Bryant Lee was killed Saturday morning in Baton Rouge, LA after being shot in the head.
At this time, police do not have a motive or suspect in the shooting.
Alongside Lee, two other individuals were also shot during the incident that occurred in Sparrow street near Kingfisher Avenue and they suffered minor injuries.
Lee planned to attend Southern University to study engineering and join the football team as a walk-on. Just six months ago, he survived being shot in the leg during a drive-by shooting. It is not known yet if both attacks were connected and what Bryant Lee has to do with them, as most people who knew him said he was a good kid, who stayed out of trouble and wasn’t involved in gang issues.
According to Lee’s football coach Ken Hilton, Lee was an upstanding young man.
“This was not a young man who was in and out of trouble or some gang thing,”
Hilton told The Advocate.
“It was a kid who in my eyes was a good kid. Everything he said was ‘no, sir’ or ‘yes, sir’and shook your hand.”
According to the police, they do not currently have a motive or suspect in the shooting. This is so sad.
May his soul rest in peace, and help his family through this difficult times.
