Christopher Whiteboy Morton, 27, was found with a gunshot wound to the head inside a crashed vehicle in the 400 block of Russell Street in Baltimore on August 3, 2023. Police first responded to what was reported as a vehicle crash near M&T Bank Stadium and Camden Yards at about 2:00 p.m.; Morton was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Morton was a producer in Baltimore’s hip-hop community, known as Whiteboy, and had recently surpassed one million streams for his work. Friends described him as generous and genuine; the city marked what would have been his 28th birthday with a candlelight vigil and balloon release.

Baltimore homicide detectives opened an investigation but have not publicly announced a motive or identified suspects. A reward of up to $8,000 has been offered for information leading to an arrest and charges. If anyone knew Christopher, his movements that afternoon, or observed suspicious activity near Russell Street on August 3, 2023, please come forward with what was seen.
