One man is dead after police say he tried to rob an off-duty Baltimore police officer over the weekend.
Police say Edel Moreland allegedly approached the off-duty officer on Homewood Road in Linthicum, pulled a gun and demanded money.
The officer pulled his service weapon and shot Moreland, police said.
Investigators say Moreland was carrying a realistic-looking toy gun.
The officer is an 18-year veteran of the police force and has been placed on routine administrative duties.
