On the morning of May 16, 2018, 18-year-old DaMon Hamilton Perlie was found on the 2000 block of Hollins Street in the Boyd-Booth neighborhood of Baltimore suffering from fatal gunshot wounds. Known to family as Dell, he was a Black/African American male described as protective of his siblings and willing to share with relatives.

DaMon’s death occurred roughly four blocks from where his older brother had been fatally shot in 2017, compounding the family’s loss. The case description notes ongoing concern about gun violence in the city.

If anyone knew DaMon, saw activity on Hollins Street that morning, or has information that could help the investigation, that information could be important to his family and investigators.
