In the late summer of 2025, the life of 31-year-old Charlton Hudson Morris was tragically cut short on the streets of Baltimore, Maryland. On the morning of September 10th, at approximately 11:30 a.m., police responded to a report of a shooting in the 2300 block of Ashland Avenue. Upon their arrival, they discovered Morris suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to his upper body.
He was immediately transported to a local hospital for medical attention.
Despite the efforts of the hospital staff, Charlton Morris succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased. The incident was ruled a homicide, prompting an investigation by the Baltimore Police Department's Homicide detectives. His death was one of several fatal shootings that occurred in the city around that time, leaving the community unsettled. An obituary was later published, allowing friends and family to leave messages of condolence and share memories of a life taken too soon.
In the weeks that followed, investigators worked to identify who was responsible for the death of Charlton Morris. Their efforts led to a significant development in the case the following month. On October 14, 2025, the Baltimore Police Department announced that an arrest had been made in connection with the murder. A 22-year-old man named Jabril Turner was taken into custody and subsequently charged with the killing of Charlton Morris.
