NOTTINGHAM, Md. — A teen was shot and killed Sunday night in Nottingham, according to Baltimore County police.

It happened around 9:45pm near a shopping center at the intersection of Belair Road and Rossville Boulevard.

That's where officers found 17-year-old Elias Cieslak suffering from a gunshot wound. He later died at a nearby hospital.

There is currently no information on a potential suspect or motive.

"We are in the preliminary stages of this investigation," said Gladys Brown, a Public Information Officer with Baltimore County Police.

Cieslak was a student at Parkville High School. Trauma councilors were on hand at the school Monday helping students and staff impacted by his death.

Public viewings for Cieslak will be held April 30 at Evans Life Celebration Home in Parkville from 3 to 5pm, and again between 7 and 9pm.

Funeral Services will be held 11am the following day at St. Ursula's Catholic Church on Harford Road.

A GoFundMewas started by the family to help cover funeral expenses.
