Ken Gerstley, 58, was shot and killed while working outside a convenience store on Brighton Street in West Baltimore on the morning of January 30, 2021. A Pikesville resident and family man, he was servicing an ATM when an attempted robbery turned deadly; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Baltimore Police investigators treated the incident as a robbery. Surveillance images released showed a dark-colored or blue SUV that two suspects were believed to have used to flee. The vehicle was later found abandoned but reportedly produced no forensic leads. One suspect was described only as a young African-American male; that description did not lead to an arrest.

The family has publicly appealed for information and offered a reward that grew to $88,000 for tips leading to an arrest and conviction. The case remains unsolved and the family continues to seek answers.

If anyone knew Ken, was in the Brighton Street area that morning, or has information about the SUV or the suspects, please share what is known.
