On the evening of November 30, 2008, Darren Davis, a 26-year-old Black male, was shot on the 4000 block of Oakford Avenue in Baltimore and later died at the Maryland Shock Trauma Center. Two other people were killed in the same incident: 45-year-old Troy Brown and 14-year-old Perrish Parker. That day saw six homicides in the city and helped make November 2008 Baltimore’s deadliest month of the year, with a total of 31 homicides.

Investigators described a major obstacle: a Stop Snitching culture that discouraged witnesses from coming forward. As of early 2009 no arrests had been publicly announced and no suspects officially named, leaving the triple killing unsolved. If anyone knew Darren, Troy, or Perrish, or has information about the Oakford Avenue shooting, please share what you know with investigators.
