On a Friday night in Edgewood, Maryland, the life of 20-year-old Bryan H. Burrows Jr. was tragically cut short. The events unfolded around 11:15 p.m. on April 3, 2026, when Harford County Sheriff's deputies responded to reports of a shooting near the intersection of Grempler Way and Brookside Drive. Upon their swift arrival, they discovered a 22-year-old man with a gunshot wound to his shoulder and neck.
He was conscious and breathing, and deputies provided immediate medical aid before he was transported to a Baltimore-area trauma center for treatment of his injuries, which he was expected to survive.
While at the scene of the first shooting, deputies received information about a second victim located less than 1,000 feet away. In the 1900 block of Eloise Lane, they found Bryan H. Burrows Jr. lying in the roadway, unconscious and not breathing, with a gunshot wound to his chest. Despite the efforts of deputies and emergency medical personnel to render aid, Burrows was pronounced dead at the scene. His girlfriend later described him as a very kind-hearted, loving, and motivated young man.
The Harford County Sheriff's Office launched an investigation into the double shooting, with detectives from the Criminal Investigations Division taking the lead. Investigators believe the incident was isolated, stating that the two victims were known to each other. Preliminary findings suggest that the two men were not shooting at each other. Authorities also confirmed that several other people were present during the incident, though not all were directly involved. As the investigation remains active and ongoing, no arrests have been announced in connection with the death of Bryan H. Burrows Jr. Law enforcement has urged anyone with information regarding the shooting to come forward and contact detectives.
