GLEN BURNIE, MD — A year after the fatal shooting of a nurse and single mother in a Glen Burnie parking lot, Anne Arundel County Police are renewing their appeal for information, hoping new leads will bring justice in the unsolved homicide.

On October 29 of last year, Natasha Renee Harris, 30, was gunned down outside her parents’ apartment on Snowcap Court. Officers responded around 7:40 p.m. to reports of gunfire and found Harris suffering from multiple gunshot wounds in a parking lot. She was transported to the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.
