David Schneider, 60, was fatally shot on June 19, 2023, while doing yard work outside his Maxwell Park home on Camden Street near MacArthur Boulevard. The shooting happened around 6 p.m. as Schneider stood on a ladder trimming hedges; he was struck in the back, managed to stagger to a neighbor’s house, and collapsed. First responders later pronounced him dead.

Surveillance footage captured a white vehicle moving slowly down the street at the time; a person is seen standing next to the vehicle while it was still in motion, then re-entering the car and fleeing at speed. Investigators have considered a possible attempted robbery but have not established a definitive motive. Family and neighbors describe Schneider as generous and caring; a vigil drew more than 100 attendees and community leaders called for stronger safety measures.

If anyone saw the white vehicle or has other information about the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
