On the evening of January 19, 2022, a quadruple shooting on the 2400 block of East Monument Street in Baltimore left three men dead and one person wounded. Among those killed was 28-year-old Tyrone ’TJ’ Allen. The other two deceased were 29-year-old DaShawn ’Nut’ Reon McGrier and 24-year-old Hassan ’Woot’ Smith. One survivor was treated after the attack.

Investigators later determined the shooter fired 25 rounds into a crowd that night. A breakthrough came when Jaheim Battle was arrested; on June 4, 2024, he pleaded guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Allen, McGrier and Smith. Family members gave impact statements during the proceedings, and Battle received multiple life sentences.

If anyone witnessed the January 19, 2022 shooting or has information that wasn’t shared in court, please come forward to help the families and investigators.
