Police reported that a mass shooting occurred Tuesday night next to a funeral home in Towson, Maryland, leaving at least one person dead and nine injured.
After receiving many reports of a shooting, officers arrived at the 8500 block of Loch Raven Blvd. at approximately 7:15 p.m., according to Baltimore County Police Chief Robert McCullough.
“This incident is shocking, especially for those of us in Baltimore County,” stated Johnny Olszewski, the county executive. It truly shakes the conscience because such things are completely unheard of here.
