Shooting (UPDATE)                                                                                     Brooklyn Park          

 

On August 28, 2017 at approximately 8:55 p.m., officers responded to the 250 block of Edgevale Road for a shooting.  When officers arrived they located a 41year old female that had been shot, and learned that a fourteen year old male had also been shot but taken to Harbor Hospital by a family member.  Detectives and the Evidence Collection Unit responded to the scene and recovered various caliber shell casings and began conducting their investigation.

 

The preliminary investigation has determined that a group of males approached another group in the 250 block of Edgevale Road and began shooting at them. At this time, it is believed that the two groups are known to each other and the shooting was the result of an ongoing feud between the two groups.

 

The juvenile’s injuries are non-life threatening. The adult female is currently listed in stable condition. Detectives are still conducting interviews and are actively investigating this case. There is no further information available at this time. Information will be updated when available.

Fatal Crash                                                                                                                 Crofton

 

On August 29, 2017 at approximately 10:39 p.m., officers responded to the report of a crash involving a pedestrian on Crain Highway (MD 3) and Wellfleet Lane in Crofton. Investigation determined that a Honda was traveling northbound on Crain Highway in the area of Wellfleet Lane.  A pedestrian wearing all dark clothing walked directly into the path of the northbound Honda.  The Honda struck the pedestrian who was pronounced dead on the scene.

 

The preliminary cause of the crash is pedestrian error.  Alcohol on the part of the pedestrian is also likely a contributing factor.  Toxicology results are pending an autopsy by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.

 Recovered Human Remains                                                                        Annapolis

 

            On Monday, August 28, 2017 at approximately 11:00 a.m., acting on a tip, members of the Anne Arundel County Police Department located human skeletal remains.  The remains were located in a wooded area of Quiet Waters Park located in the 600 block of Quiet Waters Park Road, Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Maryland.  Anne Arundel County Police Homicide Unit Detectives responded to the scene and assumed command of the investigation.

 

            The skeletal remains were recovered and transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) in Baltimore.  Preliminary examination by the OCME indicates the remains are that of a young adult male with evidence of trauma and the manner of death being homicide.  The Anne Arundel County Police Department is working with the OCME and neighboring jurisdictions in an attempt to positively identify the remains.  At this time, it cannot be positively determined how long the remains had been there, however the condition of the remains suggest the person’s death was not recent.

 

            There is no reason to believe there is any imminent threat to the community.  This is a very fluid and active investigation where the Anne Arundel County Police is urging anyone with information to come forward by calling the Anne Arundel County Homicide Unit at 410-222-4731.  If people with information wish to remain anonymous they can also contact the Anne Arundel County Police Tip Line 410-222-4700 or Metro Crime Stoppers.
