In the early evening of March 3, 2026, the quiet of a Riverdale, Maryland neighborhood was broken by an act of violence that claimed the life of 42-year-old Francisco Martinez Enriquez. At approximately 6:50 p.m., officers from the Prince George's County Police Department were dispatched to the 6800 block of Patterson Street, where they discovered Enriquez's body outside.
The initial investigation at the scene suggested a violent end, a fact that was later confirmed by the Office of the
Chief Medical Examiner. An autopsy determined that Francisco Martinez Enriquez's death was a homicide, the result of a gunshot wound. Investigators learned that Enriquez had no fixed address at the time of his death.
In the days following the discovery, detectives from the Homicide Unit have been actively working to piece together the events that led to the fatal shooting. As of now, a motive for the attack has not been established, and authorities have not publicly identified any suspect or suspects in the case. No arrests have been made.
The Prince George's County Police Department is urging anyone with information to come forward and has offered a reward of up to $25,000 for tips that lead to an arrest and indictment. The investigation remains ongoing as detectives continue their search for those responsible for the death of Francisco Martinez Enriquez.
