    Default 2 fatal shootings in Anne Arundel in 24 hours

    Parts of our State Capital are becoming very violent and should be avoided.

    The deadly weekend comes after Annapolis police charged Charles Spriggs, 25, and William Chase in the fatal shooting of 30-year-old Howard Durley last Wednesday night in the Bywater Mutual Homes community. Police said the shooting began with a dispute involving a woman that Spriggs shares a child with.

    Just after 4 a.m. Sunday, a 26-year-old man was found shot and stabbed to death in a wooded area of Glen Burnie. A Baltimore man has been charged with first-degree murder in that incident.

    Today officers responded to the 300 block of Harry S Truman Parkway at 1 a.m. and found the man and woman suffering from gunshot wounds inside a business, police spokesman Lt. Frank Tewey said.
    Eric Glenn Banks was charged with first-degree murder in the stabbing and shooting death of a man in Glen Burnie on Sunday

    Erica Tywanda Banks was charged with possession of a handgun after a man was found stabbed and shot to death in Glen Burnie on Sunday.

    Tremain Celos Calhoun was charged with possession of a handgun after a man was found stabbed and shot to death in Glen Burnie on Sunday.

    Eric is Erica's father. The family that slays together.......

    Right, stay out of Annapolis, even though only one of these events took place there.
    Wish I knew how to make the roll eyes symbol here.

    ( Harry Truman Pkwy. is at least 3 miles from the Annapolis City boundary, and Glen Burnie is what, 15?)

    I'll tell you what is close to Annapolis,the now closed Crownsville State Hospital which needs to be re-opened. If we would start keeping track of our nuts like we used to a lot of these crimes wouldn't happen. Our mental health system is completely broken,our government won't acknowledge this because of cost and sexual deviants. Just keep blaming guns idiots.

    Simple....stay out of government subsidized housing:

    Bywater Mutual Homes, Inc. is a 308 townhouse community located in the heart of Annapolis, MD. We offer two, three and four bedroom townhomes, giving you the advantages of single family living for qualified families of low and moderate income (HUD Section 8 and Section 236).
    The problems in Annapolis are almost universally limited to the large communities of subsidized housing complexes.

    There's another commonality amongst most of the problems there is well, but it likely isn't comfortable to admit.

    Sure. Where's your proof that any of these perps were mental, and should have been institutionalized?

    1st shooting, no motive was given...but 2nd shooting was a domestic issue. Both shooters from outside AACo.



    "A man is dead and a woman has been hospitalized with serious injuries after a shooting early this morning on the outskirts of Annapolis, county police said.

    It was the second fatal shooting in the county within the last 24 hours.

    Just after 4 a.m. Sunday, a 26-year-old man was found shot and stabbed to death in a wooded area of Glen Burnie. A Baltimore man has been charged with first-degree murder in that incident.

    Today officers responded to the 300 block of Harry S Truman Parkway at 1 a.m. and found the man and woman suffering from gunshot wounds inside a business, police spokesman Lt. Frank Tewey said.

    The man was pronounced dead at the scene by Anne Arundel County Fire Department.

    The woman, 43-year old Tracy Lynn West of Crownsville, was taken to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore with life-threatening injuries, fire department spokesman Division Chief Keith Swindle said. She remains in critical condition.

    Police identified the dead man as West's estranged husband, 50-year old Calvin Cofield, 50, of the 7200 block of High Bridge Road in Bowie/."

    not to mention the old Crownsville Hospital is even further away from Annapolis than Harry Truman Pkwy.-- I'd say about ten miles away from the border.

    So, you're saying everyone who commits murder is clinically insane?

    Wow, you must work for the defense. Your Honor, please excuse Mr Smith....he didn't know what he was doing as he shot the deceased.

    Sure fire way to clean out death row....ship them all to the mental clinic. Yikes!

    I would agree that anyone that commits murder has mental problems of some sort. But I would not have a problem with capital punishment for any of them.

    Unless you're a defense attorney, I think most would disagree:

    I am not. I am just a person with an opinion.
