Antwan William Horton was shot during a robbery on the 500 block of North Decker Street in Baltimore in the early morning of March 22, 2008. He was 21 at the time; the gunshot left him paralyzed and he lived with those injuries for nearly fifteen years.

On August 25, 2022, Horton, then 35, died of complications tied to the 2008 shooting. A medical examiner ruled his death a homicide on March 8, 2023, and Baltimore police were notified March 10, 2023. The investigation into the original shooting was reclassified as a homicide case, but the State’s Attorney’s Office later closed the case by exception. No arrests or suspect identifications have been publicly announced.

Anyone who knew Horton, was in that neighborhood in March 2008, or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
