Two men are facing first-degree murder charges in connection with a brazen mid-day shooting death that left a West Broadway school under lockdown earlier this year.
Police were called to the intersection of Young Street and Balmoral Street around 3:45 p.m. June 14, where they found the 29-year-old victim, later identified as Kyle Anthony Braithwaite.
Braithwaite was taken to hospital where he later died.
The shooting happened near Balmoral Hall School, which went into a short lockdown as a precautionary measure.
