Marcus Ricardo Edwards was 21 and a sophomore at Morgan State University when he was fatally stabbed on the night of Monday, September 19, 2016. The attack occurred near his apartment at the intersection of Loch Raven Boulevard and Woodbourne Avenue, about a mile from campus. He was found with a stab wound to the chest and died after being taken to a nearby hospital.

Edwards was a social work major who hoped to become a police detective in Washington, D.C. He had graduated from the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department’s junior academy and interned with the department; the D.C. force later named him an honorary police officer. Baltimore Police conducted door-to-door canvassing and a manhunt for whoever was responsible, but investigators had not announced any arrests and a motive remained unknown.

Anyone who knew Marcus, witnessed the area that night, or has information that could help solve this case is urged to contact the Baltimore Police Department.
