Counsel delivered opening statements on July 10 in the trial of a 22-year-old man accused of attempted murder after an altercation that the prosecution claimed “was supposed to be just a fight between young adult women.”
The Incident at Fort Armistead Park
Alonzo Lindsey faces 58 charges in connection to a March 21, 2023, shooting at Fort Armistead Park, situated on the 4000 block of Fort Armistead Road. The charges include attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder, and various other firearms offenses.
Before Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Troy K. Hill, the prosecution explained to the jury that a fight that originated among a group of young women on social media escalated to physical violence when the group decided to meet at Fort Armistead Park to continue their altercation.
At the park, physical altercations ensued, and shots were fired from a car, resulting in two victims being shot and treated at Shock Trauma, while three others sustained minor injuries.
The Prosecution’s Case
According to the prosecution, Ayeshia Holland picked up Lindsey on her way to the scene of the fight and he used a rifle to shoot at five victims from the backseat of her car. The prosecution alleged that Holland and Lindsey were close friends.
Lindsey’s defense team argued that the evidence presented by the prosecution, including a nickname, latent fingerprints, and Holland’s accusation, does not prove Lindsey’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
The Defence’s Argument
Attorneys Koryn High and Jerome Wilson asserted that the prosecution’s case was based on weak evidence. They explained that the nickname used in social media messages between the young women involved was not directly linked to Lindsey. The defense also disputed the significance of Lindsey’s fingerprint found on Holland’s car, stating it could have been from any time.
High emphasized that the crux of the case was Holland’s accusation against Lindsey and urged the jury to critically evaluate the evidence presented.
Case Developments
In December 2023, Holland pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree assault in connection to the March 21, 2023, incident. The trial is ongoing, with proceedings expected to continue on July 11.
