Lyndon Jr Waddell, 29, died on April 8, 2017, at Johns Hopkins Hospital after complications from an infection. His death was later ruled a homicide on July 5, 2017, because it was determined to be the direct result of a gunshot wound he suffered on January 5, 2007. On that day Waddell, then 19, was found in critical condition on Carswell Street with a gunshot wound to the back that left him paralyzed for the rest of his life.

Baltimore Police continue to list the 2007 shooting as an open investigation. No suspects or arrests have been publicly identified in connection with the attack that ultimately proved fatal ten years later. If anyone has information about the 2007 Carswell Street shooting or the person responsible, please contact the Baltimore Police Department.
