On the afternoon of September 24, 2021, 60-year-old Reginald Evans was struck by gunfire on the 1300 block of North Central Avenue in Baltimore. First responders transported him to a local hospital with serious injuries. Evans lived with the consequences of that shooting for more than two years, and on December 2, 2023, at age 62, he died from medical complications tied to the earlier wound.

An autopsy at the Medical Examiner’s Office determined his death was a homicide caused by the 2021 gunshot. The Baltimore Police Department has reclassified the matter from a non-fatal shooting investigation to a murder inquiry. As of the most recent reports, no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests announced.

Anyone who was on or near North Central Avenue on September 24, 2021, or who has information about the shooting, is asked to contact investigators.
