BALTIMORE — A narrow East Baltimore street of marble stoops and boarded up rowhomes, known for drug dealing, is among the latest scenes punctuating the city’s unrelenting gun violence.
Police say a gunman opened fire in the 700 block of Rose Street at midday Tuesday, spraying more than 60 bullets onto the street with an assault rifle, killing 25-year-old Chrone Cummings and injuring three other people.
Just hours later, across the city, five more people were shot on leafy Boarman Avenue, near Reisterstown Road, where many homes have wide, sometimes sagging, front porches.
