Khalil Tatum, 38, known to friends and family as Poochie, was shot and killed in Baltimore on the afternoon of November 28, 2022. Patrol officers were called to the 3600 block of Woodland Avenue at about 1:29 p.m.; medics pronounced Mr. Tatum dead at the scene. He was remembered by those who knew him as humble, loving, caring, and goofy, and was a father of three who attended Southern High School.

Detectives arrested 27-year-old Josh Roberts the next day, November 29, 2022. According to court documents, Roberts told investigators he went to Woodland Avenue to confront Mr. Tatum over suspected abuse of Roberts’s mother; the confrontation escalated and Roberts said he fatally shot Mr. Tatum and later disposed of the gun in the Patapsco River. Roberts was charged with first-degree murder and multiple gun-related offenses.
