Demarris Johnson was 15 when he was shot on April 21, 2007, in the 6800 block of Fait Avenue in Baltimore. He survived the initial attack but lived with the consequences of that shooting for many years.

On February 8, 2023, Demarris, aged 30, died from complications tied to the injuries he suffered in 2007. The link between the earlier shooting and his death has been described as direct; no public details about suspects or arrests in the original attack have been provided. The case is notable for the long interval between the violent act and the eventual fatal outcome.

If anyone knew Demarris, witnessed the April 2007 shooting, or has information about who was responsible, please come forward with what you know.
