Baltimore, Maryland – In a significant development regarding a shooting on February 3rd in the Eastern District, Baltimore police have apprehended 43-year-old Marrico Bell, a resident of Baltimore.

The arrest follows an investigation into an incident where a 32-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound after a dispute in the 1500 block of Carswell Street. The victim, who was later treated at a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries, was identified as the target of the altercation leading to the shooting.
