"We understand that this was a terrifying, frightening situation, but when you fire a gun into the air, you become part of the problem," Guglielmi said of the female victim in Monday's Bolton Hill attack. "The best thing to is to be a good witness and call the police."

The two men who tried to rob the couple escaped, and were described only as men in their 20s.

She made a classic mistake - she shot into the air when she should have shot into the chest of her attacker...

One problem: Maryland is not a "Shall Issue" CCW state. If she was carrying a gun without a permit, then she was committing a crime. A killing which occurs in the commission of a crime is automatic bad news for the shooter.

I'm going to guess that all parties involved had prior criminal records.

Yes. A controlled pair delivered to the cardio thoracic cavity would have been a better choice.

What a complete bullshit story.

I'm thinking of moving to baltimore just for the shits and giggles. I would have to move from SW Colorado, but I'm in need of giggles.

Arrest a person who tried to protect herself instead of the guys who did it? No wonder there’s so much crime in Baltimore. Thank you, Baltimore police. Is this woman going to do time in a craphole Baltimore prison?

Her second mistake was sticking around to talk to police. She should have took off immediately just like her would be assailants. No good could have come from talking to the police.

Baltimore’s Inner Harbor has become a state of anarchy with roving bands of young out of control black yutes . Do not bring your love ones to this nightmare reality if you really love them . WARNING !!!!! ,, I you attempt to defend yourself you could find yourself in serious trouble . Baltimore like Chitown is in a state of anarchy and denial .
