Disturbing footage captures the tragic demise of Shakeia Allen, 27, in broad daylight as she attempted to flee from her ex-boyfriend on Sunday.
The Baltimore resident had recently obtained a restraining order against her former partner.
Baltimore County police are currently probing a homicide in the Parkville vicinity following a shooting incident involving a woman on Sunday afternoon.
Law enforcement officials stated that officers were summoned to the 8500 block of Walther Boulevard just before 3:30 p.m. Sunday in response to reports of a homicide.
Upon arrival, they discovered a female victim who had sustained multiple gunshot wounds. Tragically, she was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The shooting occurred within a Parkville apartment complex in broad daylight on Sunday afternoon.
Following the gunfire, the assailant did not display urgency in leaving the scene.
Upon arrival, officers found a female victim with apparent gunshot wounds in the parking lot of the establishment,” stated Baltimore County Police Det. Anthony Shelton at the scene. “The victim was pronounced deceased on-site. During the preliminary investigation, law enforcement indicated that they did not perceive the shooting as a random act.
Authorities suspected that the victim had been specifically targeted. Police have since identified the victim as 27-year-old Shakeia Allen.
Court records indicate that in recent months, law enforcement had responded to multiple domestic disturbances at her former residence on Bayberry Road.
In late February, police were called to the residence after a report that her ex-boyfriend had assaulted her while she was in the process of moving her belongings out of the home.
Upon his arrest the following day, he relinquished a handgun that he had concealed in his waistband.
While law enforcement has yet to publicly identify a suspect in her homicide, just last week, a hearing for a protective order concerning both individuals was dismissed due to their absence from court.
