CAMBRIDGE, MD – Police in Cambridge are investigating a second shots fired incident that occurred Tuesday night. The first incident was reported at around 8:30 near Colonia Avenue.

Later that night, police responded to a second incident.

CPD officers were sitting stationary in a patrol vehicle on Saunders Ave at Park Lane on Tuesday at approximately 10:30 pm when multiple shots were heard in the distance but were unable to pinpoint their exact location.


Following an analysis of the “Shot Spotter” system, officers observed a shooting outside of the reportable area for the same area of Bayly Rd at Chestnut Place.

Officers from CPD and MSP units responded to the area in search of victims, witnesses, damage, and evidence of the shots fired.

No one was observed in the area upon their arrival. Officers searched the area on foot and in vehicles. A single spent shell casing was located in the roadway by officers. Approximately at the same time as officers were attending the Bayly Rd incident, a caller from the 100 block of Glenburn Ave reported shots fired.

Officers and detectives from the CPD responded to the area and met with the complainant who stated that shots were being heard throughout the City, but was unable to specify a specific location. The incident was determined to be the same shots fired in Bayly Road.
