Lamontrey Tynes was 24 when he was fatally shot in Baltimore on August 5, 2017. Officers first heard gunfire near South Carey and Sargeant streets about 5:00 p.m.; later calls led police to the 1200 block of Sargeant Street where blood, three 9mm shell casings, a car door handle, and a projectile were found. Tynes was located in the back seat of a deserted car at the entrance to the University of Maryland Medical Center’s emergency room with a gunshot wound to the chest and later died at the Maryland Shock Trauma Center.

Investigators say the shooting followed a robbery earlier that evening in the same area, in which money and prescription drugs were stolen. Tynes confronted a man he believed was involved, identified by police as 28-year-old Robert Garris; witnesses reported Garris shot Tynes during the argument. In April 2019 a jury found Robert Garris guilty of second-degree murder, use of a handgun in the commission of a crime, and being a prohibited person in possession of a handgun.

Did anyone in the Baltimore community see or hear anything that night that could shed more light on what happened?
