On a Sunday in Birmingham, Alabama, the life of Kwesi Barham, a male, was tragically cut short. On October 24, 2021, an officer on routine patrol in the East Precinct discovered Barham's unresponsive body lying in the roadway in the 1700 block of 87th Street North.

Upon their arrival, Birmingham Fire and Rescue personnel assessed the situation and pronounced Barham deceased at the location.
The cause of death was determined to be multiple gunshot wounds. The circumstances surrounding how long he had been in the road prior to being found remain unknown.
In the months that followed, the Birmingham Police Department's Homicide Division continued to investigate the case. As of early 2022, no suspects had been publicly identified, and no arrests had been made in connection with the murder of Kwesi Barham. Detectives made a public appeal for assistance, urging anyone with information to come forward to help bring justice to his family. The investigation into his death remains ongoing.
