BALTIMORE — A hairdresser was inside an apartment working on a client when shots were fired through their building.
Fortunately, they were not in the room where the bullets struck and no one was injured.
However, police are investigating the shooting at an apartment complex in the 1500 block of Argyle Avenue in Northwest Baltimore.
A portion of the street was blocked off by police tape.
Windows in the building were shattered, and still, officers are searching for the gunman.
"I was in the house doing hair at the time," hairdresser Mia Robinson said.

A gunshot victim herself, neighbor Julia Smoot said these children need to put down the guns because they are negatively impacting the community.
"This is every day, all day long," Smoot said. "It’s not the shooting, it’s the stabbing, it’s the fighting and they don’t come one and two, they come as a pack."
"That’s why I say accountability. You know, they don’t have that," Robinson said. "It’s not in their vocabulary at all. They don’t know what it means they have nobody to teach them that."
