Mykia Dyer was 29 and a hairstylist described as vibrant and fun-loving when she and her 34-year-old husband, Sean Dyer, were ambushed in broad daylight on January 23, 2018, in Baltimore’s Upton neighborhood. The couple had driven to the 1300 block of Division Street so Sean could change; when he returned to the car an unknown assailant opened fire around 12:50 p.m., striking both of them. Police and medics found the pair inside their vehicle and they were pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

Friends and family remembered Mykia for her talent at the salon and her love of travel. The double homicide shook the community and came just over a week before a planned city-wide ceasefire event. Baltimore Police homicide detectives continue to investigate and no arrests have been announced.

If anyone has information about that January 23 shooting or saw activity near the 1300 block of Division Street that afternoon, please share what you know with investigators.
