Kevin Brame, 31, was shot in the back of the neck and killed in the driveway of the home of his estranged wife on Cherry Drive at about 9 p.m. on Nov. 1, 1999. No one has been arrested and Dayton police have never publicly identified a suspect in the case, despite the posting of a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Brame’s killer...
Rosemary Brame said the killing of her son was more “heinous” because he was ambushed while off duty. “This person knew he was going to be there,” she said of the killer. “He hid in the bushes. He watched him take the two boys into their mother’s home. He watched him come out, take a few steps toward his Tracker that was parked in the driveway. He came out of the bushes and killed him from behind with a single shotgun blast and left.”
