On the evening of December 28, 2008, Edgar Christopher Mazyck, a 39-year-old African-American man, was fatally shot outside the Edmondson Discount Mart on Edmondson Avenue in Baltimore. He had stepped briefly back into the store when an unknown person fired a single shot that struck him; the wound proved to be fatal.

The Baltimore Police Department investigated the homicide, but witnesses in the area were reportedly reluctant to come forward, hindering the inquiry. No suspects were publicly identified and no arrests were made, and the case has since gone cold.

If anyone was in the Edmondson Avenue area that night or has information about the shooting, please come forward to help Mazyck’s family find answers.
