Daniel James Schaefer, a 35-year-old White man, was shot during the course of a robbery in the early morning hours of December 28, 2012, in the 6000 block of Moravia Park Drive in Baltimore. The shooting left him a quadriplegic; he lived with those catastrophic injuries for the next decade and faced significant daily challenges as a result.

On November 24, 2022, at age 45, Schaefer died. Authorities later had the medical examiner reclassify the death as a homicide; that reclassification is recorded as occurring on May 9, 2023.

In the initial investigation, police identified a suspect. On February 4, 2013, Laquan Ferome was arrested and charged with attempted first-degree murder in connection with the robbery and shooting. Officials have said they are consulting with the State’s Attorney’s Office about whether to pursue new or upgraded charges following the reclassification.
