On the night of July 22, 2025, Kayla Williams, a 30-year-old Black woman and mother of three, was found with a life-threatening gunshot wound on the 1100 block of Mt. Holly Street in the Edmondson Village neighborhood of Baltimore. Medics pronounced her dead at the scene; the area was described by residents as typically quiet and familiar to Williams because her father lived there. She had spoken with her mother, Charmayne Turner, at about 8 p.m. that evening, and detectives notified the family the following day.

Baltimore homicide detectives are investigating but have released few details. As of late 2025 no arrests or public suspects have been announced; authorities are offering an $8,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and felony charges. Kayla’s family, including her mother and stepfather Andre Turner, have pleaded publicly for justice and urged anyone with information to contact police or Metro Crime Stoppers of Maryland.

Does anyone in Edmondson Village that night recall seeing or hearing anything that could help Kayla’s children get answers?
