Another Life lost Another makeshift
memorial on a Seattle St.
Everybody loved him.
Everybody knew him.
I miss him a lot.
I don't understand. I don't.
His name kind of summed him up.
Tyrone, Love
Love's Two Sisters Just want closure.
We see people on the street every day.
You don't know well.
Did this person have something
to do with my brother's murder?
My name is Christina Bradford.
My name is Gwendolyn Love.
I'm the youngest sister of Tyrone Love.
My brother was Tyrone Love.
He was my Big Brother.
He was kind of like a Big
Brother to a lot of people.
Tyrone was very funny. He
was very, very optimistic.
He didn't really have a
bad bone in his body, like.
Everyone got along with him.
You couldn't find no one
around here to say anything bad about
him because he was just that guy
that everybody loved.
You knew Tyrone, loved you was cool with him.
What I liked about him is
that he seemed to be able to
show up as his authentic self.
My name is Shikundi Salisbury
and I am a good friend or big
bro if you will, of Tyrone love
young, black, positive role model.
He was this community person.
And of course, he was a party promoter.
It was Presidents Day weekend,
and Love was in Pioneer Square,
working at a club he was promoting for.
He then left the club and,
according to his sister,
went to a convenience
store in his neighborhood.
When he then decided to walk
home, he never made it.
Just hours before he was shot,
he and his company hosted a Presidents
Day party at a Seattle nightclub.
It was a Sunday night,
and we were kind of only thing
going on that holiday weekend.
And then I I just remember
saying peace and you know,
I'll see you later.
And I went home.
My friend Jamar had text me and said,
hey, Tyrone didn't didn't make it home.
I woke up
that morning to a text message from
a friend who was saying someone
got murdered in the neighborhood.
I just remember.
Hearing my mother well,
seeing my mother and then
getting that text message,
I kind of put two and two together.
I think the hardest part was like knowing
how much pain my mother and sister were
in that.
And that I couldn't really do anything
to take that pain for them. Having
to actually experience that first hand
is like having your soul ripped for you.
Who has that much hate in their
heart to try and take somebody
like that out of this world?
A witness to the crime says.
A man pulled up in a car
at Cherry and 27th St.
got out of the car and shot
Tyrone Love several times,
got back in the car, then speed off.
The autopsy report revealed more details.
Reading it was so painful
there was at least maybe 11.
Contact hits his head,
different parts of his body.
You're not blindly firing,
so whoever killed him meant to kill him.
There was no trouble at the party,
but sources tell KING5 police are
investigating whether Love could have
been targeted for a chilling reason.
Three months before Love was killed,
a murder happened at a party he
was promoting and people close
to this case believe the two
murders may be connected. There
was a situation where at one of his parties.
Somebody was murdered,
as he didn't see anything.
He was outside when it happened,
but he just kind of assisted with
whatever they needed in that case.
Some people felt that it was
a retaliation of some sort.
After Tyrone Love was murdered,
family and friends attended a funeral
at Madrona Presbyterian.
It was standing room only.
It was really amazing to see.
He touched so many people's lives.
It was just so packed
and so filled with love.
I really haven't seen the love
and the community and the network
that happened behind Tyrone.
The neighborhood raised money
to provide for his funeral so
the funeral cost would be paid.
We reached out to Seattle police.
They tell me that it is still an active case.
Tyrone Loves Sisters.
Hopes someone out there knows something.
Our grandmother down here.
Every time I speak to her,
she is asking if there's a
update on, uh, Tyrone's case.
And I don't have anything. You
know, I'm very hopeful that they
will have justice for Tyrone.
I'm hoping that there's gonna be some
kind of like, good news from this.
