Authorities are now dangling up to $7,500 for information on Kendrick Kevon Taylor, 23, wanted for the Central Lubbock shooting that killed 18-year-old Lawrence Brantley in August. Taylor, also known as “Skrilla,” has officially graduated to the Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitive list.
The shooting happened at 4 a.m. on 41st Street, where police say a house full of people watched Brantley and Taylor argue, then escalate into gunfire. Since then, LPD and DPS have been chasing leads while Taylor remains on the run. Officials warn he’s armed and dangerous—translation: don’t play bounty hunter unless you’ve got a death wish.
Crime Line is offering $2,500, DPS is pitching in $5,000, and cops are repeating the same plea: if you know where Taylor is, call it in. Just don’t try to collect that reward money by yourself.
From a 4 a.m. house party fight to Texas’ Most Wanted in under two months—Lubbock really knows how to fast-track a résumé.
