On October 31, 2013, at about 1:10 p.m., Michael Anthony Carter, 24, and 21-year-old Brian Michael Birden were shot in the 2000 block of Kennedy Avenue in East Baltimore Midway, near Cecil Elementary School and Green Mount Cemetery. Both victims suffered multiple gunshot wounds; one was pronounced dead at the scene and the other was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital and pronounced dead about 2:00 p.m.

Baltimore City Police opened a homicide investigation but had not identified suspects or a motive in the immediate aftermath and asked the public for information. Subsequent reports provide no updates on arrests or suspect identifications, leaving the case unresolved for both families and the neighborhood.

If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information that could help detectives, please share what is known with the authorities.
