On the afternoon of October 17, 2019, two men were found with fatal gunshot wounds to the head on the 2500 block of Brookfield Avenue in the Reservoir Hill neighborhood of Baltimore. Thirty-two-year-old Demetrius Tanner, a Bakersfield, California native and co-owner of Papa Hill’s Fish Grill who was visiting Baltimore, was one of the victims. The other victim was 23-year-old Frank Payne.

The shootings occurred around 3:15 p.m. and were described as a brazen daytime attack. Baltimore Police released photos seeking leads, and law enforcement in Bakersfield provided background information to Baltimore investigators.

The families continue to await answers while investigators seek information that could produce a breakthrough. If anyone knew Demetrius Tanner, was in Reservoir Hill that afternoon, or has information about the shootings, please share what you know.
