Baltimore County crime

On January 15, Baltimore County leaders met with community members in Towson to address crime and violence in their neighborhoods.

Last December, a mass shooting and fiery crash off Loch Raven Boulevard left nine people injured and one dead. The shooting was captured in a security camera video obtained by WJZ.

"We care," Baltimore County Police Chief Robert McCullough said. "We continue to investigate the incident and are determined to bring it to a close, to keep it from happening in the future."  

Then, a Baltimore County man allegedly shot and killed his 4-year-old son, a woman, and a 1-year-old child on Christmas Eve. A week later, a 21-year-old man was accused of stabbing his mother to death on New Year's Eve.

Baltimore County police are also investigating the deaths of 23-year-old Angel Price and 18-year-old Daryle Carter in Woodlawn.
