A woman was killed and two men were wounded in separate overnight shootings on York Road and Baker Street. Police said the first call came at about 10:49 p.m. Tuesday in the 5200 block of York Road, where officers found a 38-year-old woman and a 27-year-old man with gunshot wounds. Both were taken to hospitals, but the woman died after arriving for treatment while the man was expected to survive.

Just before 3:10 a.m. Wednesday, officers were sent to the 2900 block of Baker Street, where they found a 19-year-old man who had also been shot. He was listed in serious condition. In both cases, district shooting detectives responded and were investigating.

Baltimore’s 2026 totals stood at 47 homicides and 149 non-fatal shootings. That remains below the same point in 2025, when the city had 63 homicides and 157 non-fatal shootings, a drop of 25 percent in homicides and nearly 5 percent in non-fatal shootings. Baltimore police data show the city finished 2025 with 133 homicides and 311 non-fatal shootings, down 31 percent and 24 percent from 2024. The department’s public crime map is based on General Offense Reports and is updated regularly as cases are reviewed.

On June 1, Mayor Brandon M. Scott said Baltimore had recorded 40 homicides and 120 non-fatal shootings through the start of the month and called the reductions “historic public safety progress.”

Over the weekend in Fells Point, police said more than 1,000 people were dispersed after a chaotic crowd formed near Thames Street and South Broadway, close to Broadway Square. Police said at least two shootings were tied to the disturbance. One victim was an 18-year-old shot late Sunday night, and another 18-year-old later walked to a hospital after being shot in the feet. No arrests were immediately reported in connection with the dispersal.
