A 28-year-old woman was shot and killed in the Brewers Hill building

BALTIMORE — A Brewers Hill apartment building turned into a crime scene overnight after a 28-year-old woman was shot and killed. Baltimore police say they were called to “a home in the 3700 block of Toone Street” around 3:45 a.m. Monday. The porter is at that address. Details were scarce, leaving neighbors on alert.

“Well, there was a carjacking/shooting about a block away from here, so my thought was, was this inside and therefore probably someone known to the victim or was outside, and at 4 in the morning they could have be a carjacking, that could have been anything,” Brewers Hill resident Noah Rauscher said.

“I moved to this part of town because I know the town and I said, it’s probably safer here,” said another resident, Aidan Brannigan.

“Anytime a life is lost, it impacts the community because it causes concern,” said Brant Fisher, president of the Brewers Hill Community Association. She was told it was a domestic violence incident.

The victim’s identity has not been released and no suspect information has been released.

“At this point, at least from what details we have, no, I don’t think there’s any threat to the community because it’s an isolated incident.”

A resident of The Porter shared this message with us from the property management team.

People who live in the area say they generally feel safe.

“It caught me by surprise. It might be the last nail in the coffin to go get my carry permit,” Brannigan said, noting that he recently considered getting a permit, “just in case.”

Baltimore police said they expect to release more information soon. Homicide detectives are asking anyone with information to contact them at 410-396-2422 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7Lockup.
