In the early morning hours of April 13, 2023, gunfire on West Lexington Street in West Baltimore killed 30-year-old Allante Alexander. Alexander and a woman were sitting in his parked car in the 2000 block at about 1:15 a.m. when a black vehicle pulled up and its occupants opened fire. The woman was not injured; Alexander was struck multiple times, taken to a local hospital, and later died.

Baltimore police identified 25-year-old Darius Savoy as a suspect. Investigators say surveillance footage showed Savoy and another person get into a black 2010 Audi Q7 that had been reported stolen two days earlier and drive to the scene. Police also reported tracking the Audi via a GPS device placed on the vehicle and later recovering the car with Savoy’s fingerprints on the passenger door. Savoy was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and related offenses.

Questions remain about witness interviews and other aspects of the investigation described during court proceedings that followed. Did anyone in the West Lexington Street area see the Audi that night or know who was in it?
