Pinky Louise Ruffin, 65, was shot and killed on the evening of April 14, 2018, while on her porch in the Allendale community of West Baltimore. She was described as an unintended victim; police say the shooting was targeted at 22-year-old Marques Patterson. Patterson reportedly ran toward a home for cover and both he and Ruffin were struck. Emergency services took them to a nearby hospital, where both were pronounced dead.

Neighbors recalled Ruffin as a nice person who lived quietly and had talked with her boyfriend about moving away. Baltimore Police Commissioner Darryl De Sousa said investigators had some leads and believed the incident involved people who knew one another rather than being random.

Did anyone in Allendale at the time see or hear anything that might help clarify what happened that night?
