On the evening of March 4, 2019, in Baltimore, 18-year-old Tywon Smith, an African-American male, was fatally shot. Reports link his death to the city’s gang conflicts, noting Smith was affiliated with the Black Guerrilla Family and that the confrontation was reportedly initiated by Deontae Emmons, a member of the rival Baccwest ETG Crips, who allegedly confronted Smith about that affiliation.

After the shooting, Emmons allegedly posted on social media boasting about the killing. Emmons was later shot and killed on May 23, 2020. Public details about the police investigation into Smith’s death, including whether a warrant was ever issued in the case, have not been disclosed.

Does anyone have information about Smith’s killing or remember the events around March 4, 2019, that could help clarify what happened?
