BALTIMORE — A man faces first degree murder charges in Baltimore.
On July 25, 2020, Southwest District officers were dispatched to the 300 block of South Franklintown Road to investigate a reported shooting.
On location they found 32 year-old Tavonte Briggs suffering from gunshot wounds. He later died at an area hospital.
