BALTIMORE — A man flees after being shot by a Baltimore Police officer during a Wednesday evening traffic stop.
Marquise Wells was reportedly pulled over on W. Franklin Street in Mount Vernon for driving a vehicle with a suspended license plate.
As officers approached the car, they reportedly noticed a handgun in his waistband.
Wells, 29, was ordered to place his hands on the steering wheel, but instead drove off allegedly dragging an officer.
That prompted the officer to shoot Wells.
