John Gray was a lifelong Baltimore resident, born December 11, 1969, and known to family and friends as John Boy. He enjoyed music—Yo Gotti was his favorite rapper—and watching the Lakers, and his family remembered him as fun-loving and faithful after accepting Jesus Christ in 2002 at New Rose of Sharon Baptist Church.

When he was 23, on July 22, 1993, Gray was shot in the 1600 block of E. Eager Street. He survived that attack but lived with the resulting injuries for years. On August 3, 2017, he died; the medical examiner attributed his death to complications from the 1993 gunshot wounds and ruled it a homicide, listed as Baltimore’s 323rd in 2017. The 1993 shooting was never solved and no arrests have been announced.

Does anyone who lived near E. Eager Street in 1993 or who knew John Boy have information that could help investigators?
