Another Murder in St. Mary's

On August 24, 2011 at 11:38 P.M. police units responded to the area of Sell Drive, Lexington Park, Maryland for the report of a motor vehicle accident.

Hawkins was transported to St. Mary's Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. The St. Mary's County Bureau of Criminal Investigations is continuing an investigation into this incident.

A reward of up to $9,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the death of Mr. Hawkins.

In St Mary's the victim was Deandre Augustus Hawkins. In LaPlata the victim was Martin Hawkins.


If my last name was Hawkins I think I'd either change it or move.

I think it was posted because the reward just went up to $9000. Whenever more $$ is offered, they release it again.

That makes sense. Normally it's $1,000

Hmmm... court records show a Martain Hawkins, same age as dead guy, was arrested for Assault and had a restraining order issued against him from someone that lived in the same vacinity of where his body was found... wonder if he walked through the restraining order and ended up dead in self-defense...
