Baltimore resident decries neighborhood violence 

Dozens of bystanders watched as paramedics, police, and emergency vehicles responded to the scene of the crime and attended to the three victims of the shooting.

Despite reports that crime has decreased in Baltimore, residents say they've seen far too much of it in their neighborhood.

Kenny Ebron, who has lived in the area for 32 years, says it's become a new normal.

"It's things that happen. It happens when people violate [others] or when somebody feels disrespectful...it happens. So it's the norm," Ebron said.

"We have these [smoke] shops as well, that's coming into our community. They are poisoning our community, and it's just nonsense," he added.

Ebron says the other issue is that there aren't enough positive influences in the area to keep young people on the right path.

"The children have nothing to do. We don't have any programs. We don't have any after-school programs dealing with mental health or any of those things that need to be done in our communities, so this is what we're getting in our community...chaos."

He is calling on city and state leaders to step up and make a change, adding that even though officials say we're seeing a decrease in crime throughout the city, he's not seeing a change in his neighborhood.

"Court is done right here on the streets," he explained. "The judge is on the streets, the jury is on the streets, and if you get sentenced to life, you lose your life. This is where the courtroom is…on the streets. And until we get better leadership, we can take it back into the courthouse. But right now, this is the courthouse."
