Crime in Baltimore
Baltimore, Maryland, U.S. is notorious for its significantly high crime rate, including a violent crime rate that ranks high above the national average. Violent crime spiked in 2015 after the death of Freddie Gray on April 19, 2015, which touched off riots and an increase in murders. The city recorded 348 homicides in 2019, a number second only to the number recorded in 1993 when the population was nearly 125,000 higher.

The paper is the Baltimore Sun, the crime was committed in Potomac MD. Equating the two is like looking for Royal Carribean cruise ships on Lake Sumter because the Daily Sun had an article about them.
Also note that the article is 26 years old. Has anyplace not been touched by violence of some sort in the last 26 years?
