Carrington was shot and robbed while standing in front of his Northeast Baltimore home on Thursday.
Police say 22-year department veteran was in plain clothes, on his front lawn speaking with a neighbor when a dark vehicle believed to be an Acura pulled up.
At least one masked gunman got out of the car and demanded their property.
The neighbor threw whatever belongings he had to the ground and began running away. Carrington tried running in the opposite direction, when the gunman gave chase and shot him multiple times.
