On the morning of September 30, 2018, 32-year-old Randall Finney, Jr. went to a Balfern Avenue home in Baltimore’s Belair-Edison neighborhood to check on his son after a dispute earlier that day. Around 11:35 a.m., Steven Bowman arrived and began shooting at Finney. Eric Bowman, who lived a few houses away, then came out and also fired, striking Finney multiple times in the head, neck, back, and leg. One shot to the head had been fired at close range. Investigators found eight .40 caliber shell casings at the scene and discovered Finney’s body in front of the house.

Authorities identified Steven and Eric Bowman as the shooters; both were arrested and charged with first-degree murder and related firearm offenses. The brothers were tried jointly in September 2019 and, in November 2019, received lengthy prison terms: Steven Bowman was sentenced to life plus 25 years and Eric Bowman to life plus 30 years.

Did anyone in Belair-Edison see activity on Balfern Avenue that morning or have information about the events leading up to the shooting?
