Ashley Long was shot and killed on April 29, 2017, on the 700 block of Rose Street in East Baltimore. She had earned a degree in early childhood development despite childhood learning disabilities and was remembered by her older brother as generous and close to the family.

The events began the night before, after a late night out with friends. An argument and physical altercation between Ashley and another woman in the group was followed by a seeming reconciliation; Ashley even helped the woman with her asthma inhaler and water. The next afternoon, the woman’s two sons came looking for Ashley and the eldest, then 18 years old, shot her five times in the back.

Baltimore City police identified a suspect quickly. In May 2017 officers arrested 19-year-old QuSean Swilling, who was charged with first-degree murder in connection with Ashley Long’s death.

If anyone knew Ashley, the people she spent time with that night, or saw activity on Rose Street around April 28–29, 2017, please share what is known.
