Street, Avenue ... 18 shootings and 8 murders this weekend

A veritable spate* this weekend. And if Fenton is to be believed it looks like that 4:42 a.m. shooting was in the 5200 block of St. Charles Avenue, not N. Charles Street (and not to be confused with Charles Street Avenue in Towson), though the BPD has not corrected this on their Twitter feed or removed the Tweet that places the fatal shooting on the steps of the Hutzlers' Cathedral.

The man shot on 26th street was ID'd as one Danquel Darden,


Oh, and

Oh, and BALT CITY | MAJOR TRAUMA | 2500 BLK W LAFAYETTE ST | FEMALE W 2 GSW TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD |

Seriously, what the hell, this weekend? ... Sun reports 18 shootings and eight murders,* the highest number on a weekend since at least 2006. Batts and SRB both have their phones off the hook, so the bon mots of their minion will have to suffice: "This is a little bit of a spike in terms of the weekend, but all in all, we're pretty satisfied with the way the city is headed, violence-wise." Keep up the good work there, Satan!
