A 53-year-old white man has been charged with first and second-degree murder along with a slew of other indictments in the fatal shooting of his 22-year-old neighbor.
ABC 11 reports Tyrique Hudson was gunned down in the stairwell of his apartment in Glen Burnie, Maryland as he was leaving for work on April 15. A neighbor’s husband recalls he exited their unit to see what occurred and found Hudson’s body lying on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds. The North Carolina A&T graduate had just moved to the area after starting a job as a software engineer at Northrop Grumman. ADVERTISING
“He’s never had any confrontations or any fights,” Hudson’s mother Tonya Burch said. “Nobody has ever has to come say, ‘Oh your son did this to me or your son did that to me.’ He was just overall a very gifted, unique child.”
The victim’s assailant, James Verombeck, locked himself inside his apartment for 10 hours before a SWAT team finally broke in and detained him, according to The Capital Gazette.
