Raymond Chambers, 77, was found dead inside his home on the 1500 block of North Durham Street in East Baltimore on May 4, 2016. The Medical Examiner ruled his death a homicide, citing injuries from a sharp object, and investigators described the scene as indicating a violent encounter.

A lifelong Baltimore resident, Chambers was known for community work with children — distributing school supplies and organizing block parties around the start of the school year. His family and neighbors were left seeking answers after his sudden, violent death.

Baltimore Police homicide detectives continued the investigation for months without identifying a suspect; as of August 2016 police were asking the public for information and noted difficulties securing evidence and witness cooperation. If anyone knew Raymond, his routine, or saw activity near North Durham Street on or around May 4, 2016, please come forward with tips.
