On the night of August 1, 2013, a sense of sorrow fell over a neighborhood in northeast Baltimore as 22-year-old Dwayne Powell, a Black male, was found shot at approximately 11 p.m.. The incident occurred in the 6400 block of Harford Road, a normally busy thoroughfare that became the scene of a tragedy.
Emergency services responded to the location, but despite their efforts, Powell succumbed to his injuries. The cause of his death was officially ruled a homicide by shooting.
In the years that have followed, publically available information regarding the investigation into Dwayne Powell's death has been scarce. Details about a possible motive, any persons of interest, or arrests in connection with the shooting have not been released or reported in online sources. The case remains a painful memory for those who knew him, a story without a final chapter as the search for answers and justice continues.
