Carlos Fernandez-Ramirez, 38, of Silver Spring, Maryland, was found with multiple gunshot wounds on the evening of November 25, 2011, in the 9400 block of Adelphi Road near the Arbor Vista Apartment complex in Adelphi. Officers responded to a shooting call around 8:33 p.m., located him on the ground, and he was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Investigators initially explored a possible carjacking after Fernandez-Ramirez’s vehicle was found crashed a short distance from his body and at one point were reportedly looking for at least three suspects. Police later said they had not determined whether the car had been taken by force or if another scenario occurred. The Prince George’s County Police Homicide Unit investigated, offered a reward, and appealed for public help, but the case went cold.

No arrests have been announced and the homicide remains an open investigation. If anyone witnessed activity near Adelphi Road that night or has information about the crashed vehicle, please come forward.
