Baltimore police are dangling up to $7,000 in reward money after a nonfatal shooting on the 1200 block of E. Preston Street last week, releasing photos of two people they say may be connected to the June 4 incident and asking anyone who recognizes them to speak up.
Police release photos, promise cash reward
Officers say they were called around 9:25 p.m. on June 4 for a reported shooting in the 1200 block of E. Preston Street. Not long after, the department pushed out images of two individuals investigators want the public to help identify. According to police, tips that lead to a felony charge and arrest could bring a reward of up to $7,000, and information can be sent through the P3 Tips app, the Metro Crime Stoppers website, or a dedicated hotline, as reported by Foxx45.
Who was hurt
Responding officers found two men, ages 21 and 32, suffering from gunshot wounds and took them to local hospitals, where they were listed in stable condition. Dispatch records indicate the shooting happened inside a business on the block, an account detailed by CBS Baltimore.
How to submit tips
Tips can be submitted anonymously through the P3 Tips mobile app, via Metro Crime Stoppers’ online form, or by calling the 24-hour hotline at 1-866-7LOCKUP (866-756-2587), Metro Crime Stoppers says. The group routes information to detectives and handles reward authorization when a tip leads to an arrest. See Metro Crime Stoppers for details.
Where this fits in city trends
The Preston Street shooting lands at a moment when city leaders are pointing to a drop in homicides year to date, even as nonfatal shootings keep showing up on police logs. CBS Baltimore reported that Baltimore had recorded 40 homicides so far this year, compared with 54 in the same period in 2025.

What police are asking
Investigators are asking anyone with video, surveillance footage, or information about the two pictured individuals to contact the Homicide Section at 410-396-2100 or to use the anonymous Metro Crime Stoppers tip options. Baltimore Police say detectives are still canvassing the neighborhood and following up on leads. For ongoing updates and contact details, see the department advisory at Baltimore Police.
