Kareem Gee, 20, was shot on the 1200 block of East Preston Street in Baltimore late evening on January 26, 2024. Officers responding to a ShotSpotter alert found him with a life-threatening gunshot wound at about 10:40 p.m.; paramedics took him to Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.

Baltimore homicide detectives identified a suspect and on February 22, 2024, Eastern District Intel members, patrol officers and the Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force arrested 32-year-old Isaiah Eaddy of Baltimore. A handgun was recovered at the time of arrest, and Eaddy was charged with first-degree murder. He rejected a prosecution plea offer in July 2024 that would have included a life sentence and a concurrent 20-year firearm term.

During trial proceedings in March 2025, Eaddy testified he did not know Gee and claimed he acted in self-defense after being approached and shot at by masked individuals; a firearms analyst reported the recovered ammunition was likely from a semi-automatic weapon. A motion to dismiss was denied and the case proceeded toward closing statements. Does anyone have information about Kareem Gee, his movements that night, or the events on East Preston Street?
