Jeremy Maurice Thompson was 21 when he was fatally shot in Northeast Baltimore on the night of March 12, 2019. The shooting ended a life that people who knew him remembered for a ready smile, an unrestrained laugh and a strong devotion to his mother.

Jeremy showed mechanical skill from a young age — able to build a bicycle from scratch at nine — and had been considered someone who might pursue carpentry or landscaping. He graduated from the Achievement Academy, where classmates and his career coach said he loved learning and helped new students feel welcome.

If anyone knew Jeremy, saw or heard anything about the night of March 12, 2019, or has information that could help, please come forward.
