Steven Baisy, 41, a Black male from Dallas, was shot on the evening of October 26, 2025, near the intersection of Elam Road and North Jim Miller Road in southeast Dallas. Officers responded around 6 p.m. to reports of gunfire and found him wounded; Dallas Fire-Rescue transported him to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Detectives quickly determined that the gunman was someone known to Baisy, a detail that shaped the early hours of the investigation as they worked the scene and canvassed
the surrounding neighborhood for witnesses and surveillance footage.
In the days that followed, the case turned from a manhunt into an arrest. On October 29, 2025, 42-year-old Montray Bynum turned himself in with the U.S. Marshals and was charged with murder in connection with Baisy’s killing. Authorities have not publicly detailed a motive, and they indicated that the investigation remains active even after the arrest, leaving friends and family to grieve while awaiting answers about what led to the violence.
Baisy’s death was recorded among Texas gun violence losses, a stark entry dated October 26 that marked the end of his life and the beginning of a legal process for the accused. As detectives continue to gather evidence and prepare the case for prosecutors, the intersection where shots rang out lingers as a point of remembrance for a life cut short and a community jarred by another act of sudden, personal violence.
