Reporting from the Daily News, now I'm Cory with the story with the latest in Birmingham. A man from Trussville faces capital murder charges after a deadly break in at a home in Leeds. Charles Richard Bryan has been indicted by Jefferson County Grand Jury for shooting and killing Luis Enrique Herrera, Balenciana, during what? Prosecutors say was an attempted first degree burglary. The incident took place back in December 2024 on Morgan Street. That's when police rushed to the scene after reports of gunfire and discovered the victim inside the house. A woman was also hurt in the chaos, adding to the tragedy for those involved. First responders worked quickly, but Herrera Balenciana did not survive his injuries. Bryan was picked up by authorities just a few days later and has remained in custody without bond ever since. The formal charges came down last week, laying out the details of the unlawful entry and fatal shooting. This case is still unfolding, so we'll keep following the latest as it develops in the area.
