any idea what happened at Heath and Patapsco in South Baltimore last night/this morning? There was a chopper and maybe 5-10 police cars. I heard a report of someone in uniform (possibly a cop) being put into an ambulance on a stretcher. Apparently it was an armed robbery....

So everyone knows, if you don't see an incident in the Police Blotter in the Sun, that column is only a sampling of what happened the prior reporting day. It is by no means exhaustive.

There was a death in the towson town center parking garage thursday Aug 31st at around 11AM. The CSI had it taped off for some time. A sheet covered the head of what appeared to be a young teen male with a very bloody head wound. This could have been a suicide and I'm sure the town center would not want the bad publicity but I have not seen anything and am having a hard time letting it go ???
