Martez Santoine Taylor, 31, was shot and killed on the evening of Wednesday, May 4, 2016, on the 1300 block of 29th Street in the Ensley neighborhood of Birmingham. Officers from the Birmingham Police Department’s West Precinct and Birmingham Fire and Rescue Service responded after reports of a person shot; Taylor was found unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene.

Police determined Taylor had been involved in an argument with another individual shortly before the fatal gunfire, and investigators said the altercation escalated. Authorities asked the public for help identifying the person or persons responsible, but no suspect was publicly identified and no arrests were announced in the days and weeks that followed.

Anyone with information about what happened that night or Taylor’s final movements is asked to come forward.
