On a Sunday evening in Baltimore, the life of 41-year-old Anthony Turner, a Black / African American male, was cut short by gunfire. The fatal shooting occurred around 8:05 p.m. on November 17, 2019, in the 900 block of West Franklin Street. Turner was not the only victim of the attack; a 16-year-old boy was also shot and wounded, but he survived his injuries.
In the wake of the shooting, the Baltimore Police Department launched a homicide investigation.
Less than a month later, authorities reached out to the public for assistance in identifying two suspects who they believed were involved in Turner's murder. Investigators released descriptions of the two individuals they were searching for. One suspect was described as wearing a gray hoodie under a black pea coat, a dark bandana, light-colored jeans, and Timberland-style boots. The second suspect was reported to have been wearing a dark-colored hoodie, dark pants, and New Balance sneakers.
Despite the police department's efforts to identify the individuals responsible for Anthony Turner's death, there have been no subsequent news reports or public announcements regarding any arrests made in the case. The investigation into the shooting remains unresolved, and the identities of the two suspects sought by police have not been publicly confirmed. The case remains a painful and unanswered chapter for the family and friends of Anthony Turner.
