The Baltimore Police Department is actively seeking a suspect wanted for the homicide of 27-year-old Sophie Lee, a transgender woman, in the Barclay community of east Baltimore. The incident occurred on the early morning of September 11, 2026, at approximately 1:30 a.m. Responding officers were dispatched to the intersection of North Calvert and 25th Streets after receiving reports of a discharging firearm and a woman covered in blood. Upon arrival, officers located the victim in an alleyway near the intersection. Dispatch audio reveals that paramedics initially reported a possible gunshot wound to the armpit, and the victim was subsequently pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators canvassed the area and identified a secondary crime scene in an alley near Hunter Street, where they recovered blood trails, clothing, money, a cell phone, and shell casings. Despite nearly a month of investigation, including the review of area surveillance cameras and door-to-door inquiries, the identity of the shooter remains unknown. The motive for the killing has also not been determined, and investigators are currently assessing whether the victim knew the suspect. To aid in the identification and capture of the individual responsible, the Baltimore Police Department has released a computer-generated sketch of the man believed to have shot Lee. The department emphasizes that tips are crucial to solving this case. Residents or anyone with information regarding the suspect's identity or whereabouts are urged to contact the Baltimore Police Department or Metro Crime Stoppers directly. A tip line is available at 1-866-756-2587. Additionally, an $8,000 reward has been offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the suspect. The victim, Sophie Lee, was laid to rest in early October, and a makeshift memorial featuring balloons and candles now marks the location where the shooting took place.
