On the evening of October 8, 2014, Cortney Deontray Beckham, 22, was shot and killed outside an apartment building in the 2700 block of Lorring Drive in District Heights, Maryland. He was part of a group of men when an argument began with an approaching man who then drew a gun and opened fire into the crowd. Beckham was struck and died at the scene.

The shooter was described only as an African-American man wearing shorts and fled immediately after the shooting. The Prince George’s County Police Homicide Unit investigated and offered a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction, but no arrests have been publicly announced and the shooter’s identity remains unknown.

If anyone was in the area that night or has information about the man in shorts or the argument that preceded the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
