Maikeli Hawkins, a 40-year-old Black man, was killed in a double shooting on March 24, 2016, in the 800 block of Augusta Avenue in the Irvington neighborhood of Southwest Baltimore. A woman was also wounded in the same incident. Authorities did not release details about the circumstances that led to the shooting, and no motive or suspects were publicly identified in the immediate aftermath.

News reports confirmed Hawkins’ death and the other victim’s injury, and public homicide records do not show the case as closed. Another homicide that day produced a charging decision, but officials never linked that separate case to Hawkins’ killing. The reasons behind the violence that ended his life remain unresolved.

If anyone was in the area of Augusta Avenue on March 24, 2016, or has information about Hawkins or the shooting, please come forward to help bring answers to his family.
