Three Baltimore Shootings Over Valentine’s Weekend Leave Two Dead, One Injured
A 15-year-old girl was fatally shot near Druid Hill Avenue and Bloom Street just after 2 a.m.; two other shootings left a 36-year-old man dead on Saint Charles Ave and a 16-year-old wounded on Piedmont Ave.

A 15-year-old girl was taken to a hospital and later pronounced dead after a shooting reported just after 2 a.m. Sunday near the corner of Druid Hill Avenue and Bloom Street, CBS Baltimore reported. Her name has not been released; the original brief on the incidents said her death "ended a 10-day homicide-free streak."
Minutes earlier and later, two other violent incidents unfolded across Baltimore. Northwest officers responding to a vacant house in the 5200 block of Saint Charles Avenue found a 36-year-old man suffering trauma to his body; FOX45 and WMAR list the initial response at about 12:36 a.m., while CBS reported officers arriving around 2:08 a.m. The man was pronounced dead at the scene and homicide detectives have opened an investigation.
Late Saturday night, a 16-year-old boy was shot and transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after an incident reported at about 11:30 to 11:37 p.m. FOX45 and WMAR list the address as the 3400 block of Piedmont Avenue, while CBS described the scene at the corner of Piedmont Avenue and Denison Street, near Hilton Elementary School. FOX45 noted officers initially responded to the 3400 block of Bateman Avenue before canvassing and locating the wounded teen on Piedmont Avenue.
Baltimore Police Northwest District detectives canvassed the neighborhood after the late-night shooting on Piedmont Avenue and asked anyone with information to call 410-396-2466 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7Lockup, according to FOX45. Homicide detectives are investigating the Saint Charles Avenue death, CBS and FOX45 reported; no arrests or suspect identifications have been reported in any of the three incidents in the published accounts.
City-level data compiled by WMAR places these incidents in a broader February tracker. WMAR reports that Baltimore City recorded 10 homicides and 26 non-fatal shootings in January 2026, and that the city closed 2025 with 133 homicides. The station’s February tracker also lists other recent shootings, including a fatal shooting on the 100 block of North Broadway on Feb. 13 and a non-fatal shooting in the 400 block of Maude Avenue on Feb. 10 that led to the arrest and charging of 31-year-old Preston Freeman.
Reporters note discrepancies in timestamps and precise addresses across the accounts: the Saint Charles Avenue call is reported as 12:36 a.m. by FOX45 and WMAR and 2:08 a.m. by CBS; the teen shooting on Piedmont Avenue is variously described as the 3400 block of Bateman Avenue, 3400 Piedmont Avenue, and the corner of Piedmont and Denison Streets. WMAR’s tracker also includes a separate Jan. 25 entry naming a 15-year-old girl shot inside a home in the 2100 block of Druid Hill Avenue; that earlier case is not linked in the reports to the Feb. 15 fatality.
Items remaining to verify include exact dispatch and incident times for the Saint Charles Avenue scene, a police-confirmed incident address for the 16-year-old shooting, whether the Feb. 15 Druid Hill Avenue fatality is connected to the Jan. 25 case, and whether police have subsequently identified victims or made arrests. As of the published reports, Baltimore Police homicide detectives and Northwest District investigators are handling the scenes and no victim names have been released.
