A confrontation on the evening of April 18, 2018 in Lexington Park, Maryland, ended with 29-year-old Britain Jeremy Gill shot by a homeowner on Liberty Street. Deputies from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office found Gill with a shotgun wound to his upper body; he was treated on scene, transported to MedStar St. Mary’s Hospital, and died that same evening.

Detectives from the Criminal Investigations Division took over the inquiry and the matter was presented to a St. Mary’s County grand jury to consider whether criminal charges were warranted. The grand jury declined to indict the homeowner, and the State’s Attorney’s Office announced no charges would be filed in connection with Gill’s death.

What details about that evening or the people involved might help explain what happened?
