Travis Slaughter was 14 and a freshman at Milford Mill Academy when he was shot after a school football game on the night of Friday, September 2, 2022, near Washington Avenue and Liberty Road in Windsor Mill, Maryland. He and another teenager were struck; Travis was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his injuries. Family described him as bubbly and enthusiastic about starting high school, and detectives initially said he may have been an innocent bystander.

Investigators later said the shooting happened during an attempted robbery. Nearly two months later, Baltimore County Police arrested a 17-year-old in connection with the homicide. Subsequent legal action included an 18-year-old, Devin Gaither, pleading guilty to first-degree murder under a plea agreement with prosecutors recommending a 40-year sentence, and four other people being charged, including with conspiracy to commit robbery.

Anyone who knew Travis or was in the area that night with information is asked to come forward.
