On the night of February 16, 2019, Santos Medrano, a 37-year-old Hispanic man, was walking home from work in Southeast Baltimore when he was attacked in the 400 block of Imla Street just before 10:30 p.m. Police initially responded for an assault report; Medrano was taken to a hospital where medical examiners discovered he had been shot. An autopsy confirmed a single, close-range gunshot wound to the face as the cause of death. His sister received a call around midnight informing her he had been killed.

Investigators treated the death as a fatal robbery. A witness reported seeing two men in an alley near Medrano’s body, one standing over him holding something that looked like a pipe; the two fled to a waiting car driven away by a woman. Police learned that at 9:56 p.m. that night one of the suspects had phoned Medrano’s roommate and asked him to tell Medrano to come outside. A day after the killing Maryland State Police stopped a Toyota Corolla on I-70 in Frederick.

Does anyone have additional information about Medrano’s movements that evening or about witnesses who saw the car in the 400 block of Imla Street?
