Five dead in Baltimore County from three separate but connected shooting incidents
Yesterday, police in Baltimore County reported that an investigation got underway after five people died in three separate shootings – and those shootings are all connected.
The department’s preliminary investigation revealed that 27-year-old Joshua Green shot three people at the Royal Farms along Middleborough Road in Essex, Maryland, just before 7:00 a.m. Sunday morning. Two of those victims were pronounced dead at the scene and a third is recovering at a local hospital.
According to detectives, Green left the store and returned home where he set his apartment on fire. Police later found him outside his apartment complex – dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Detectives traveled to the home of Green’s parents in Phoenix, Maryland, where they discovered that both of the parents had been killed; both appeared to have been shot.
Detectives say all three incidents are connected and they are not searching for any additional suspects in connection to these three incidents.
