The incident began around 8:45 p.m. when a Baltimore police officer responded to a sedan that had driven the wrong way on Pennsylvania Avenue and crashed into a parked vehicle. Nedd, the driver, complied with initial instructions to sit on a curb but then fled on foot. The pursuing officer called for backup, and two additional officers joined the chase. The officers confronted Nedd in a wooded area near Argyle Avenue and Pitcher Street, where he reportedly displayed a handgun. Officers discharged their firearms, striking Nedd. He was pronounced dead at the scene, and a loaded gun was recovered nearby.
