In the video, three men are seen mulling around near the victim's home. Moments later, people in the area heard gunshots.
"I had heard the shots," neighbor Andrew Gibson said. "I was sitting in my living room, I was like, 'Wow, that's close.'"
For Gibson, a former New Jersey police officer, the sound was unmistakable.
"For me to hear those shots and find out what happened later, I think I went to the store and the whole street was full of police officers," he said. "Kind of scary."
Taylor's mother wrote on Facebook that her son died protecting his wife and trying to block intruders from pushing their way into his home.
He was a popular coach at the Catonsville Y, making lots of friends over the decade he spent there.
"He was just a gentle soul. When someone like that dies of a violent act, it just even more incomprehensible," CEO John Hoey told WJZ in November.
A $20,000 reward is available for information in the case. Anyone with information is asked to call police or Metro Crime Stoppers.
