In Lady Lake, Florida, the town’s police department is seeking assistance in solving a case that has remained unsolved for two years, marking the anniversary of a tragic killing of a 20-year-old individual. This incident stands as the only unresolved murder in the town.
Residents of Lady Lake recall the unfortunate events that took place on June 30, 2023, when Bryson “Swift” Leverette, aged 20, became involved in a shooting at a residence located in the Skyline Hills neighborhood.
The tragic circumstances unfolded as Leverette was exiting the Caroline Avenue property. Reports indicate that he and another individual were ambushed by a group of assailants armed with multiple firearms. Following the attack, the perpetrators swiftly absconded from the vicinity using unidentified vehicles.
Leverette was killed, while the other victim survived.
Police have not been able to identify any suspects in the case. A neighbor News 6 spoke to at the time said the gunfire woke up the whole neighborhood, but they never saw anyone.

The police department says Leverette’s girlfriend has since given birth to the 20-year-old’s son, and his family continues to wait for a break in the case.
