Demetric Martin, 37, of Oxon Hill was shot outside the La Quinta Inn & Suites on Hampton Park Boulevard in Capitol Heights on the afternoon of July 22, 2023. He was found around 5:30 p.m. with gunshot wounds, taken to a nearby hospital and died shortly after arrival.

Investigators determined the shooting grew out of an argument between a member of Martin’s family and a group of individuals; Martin did not know the suspects. Within a day, authorities arrested three relatives from Philadelphia: 28-year-old Te Shear Baxter, 32-year-old Tequoia Baxter and 18-year-old Ade Boggs. All three were charged with first-degree murder and related offenses. Te Shear and Tequoia Baxter were held at the Prince George’s County Department of Corrections, while Boggs was booked in Philadelphia pending extradition.

If anyone witnessed the dispute at the hotel or has information about the events that led to Martin’s death, please share what is known.
