Tony Hedgspeth, 33, was shot and killed in broad daylight on the 200 block of West Lexington Street in downtown Baltimore on Friday afternoon, May 21, 2021. Officers found Hedgspeth with a gunshot wound; he was taken to a local hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival. Homicide detectives took over the investigation.

Police arrested 27-year-old Christian Saint Rose on June 11, 2021, and 27-year-old Jamal Kingsborough on June 22, 2021; both men were charged with first-degree murder and later indicted on first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, and use of a handgun in the commission of a crime of violence. Prosecutors said surveillance footage showed Kingsborough riding a scooter on West Lexington Street, then walking to a nearby street where Saint Rose waited in a parked car; Kingsborough allegedly entered that car and Saint Rose drove away.

The prosecutions did not result in convictions. In August 2022 a judge dismissed the charges against Saint Rose. In October 2022 prosecutors entered a nolle prosequi in Kingsborough’s case after a crucial witness could not be located; an earlier plea offer to Kingsborough had been rejected. No one has been convicted for Hedgspeth’s murder. Does anyone have information about what happened on West Lexington Street that afternoon?
