Baltimore homicide detectives on Friday arrested a 52-year-old man in connection with a killing that took place one week earlier in the Central District. Authorities identified him as Brian Burrows of Baltimore and said the arrest is part of an active homicide investigation.

Arrest Announced On Baltimore Police X

In a brief advisory on X, Baltimore Police said homicide detectives had taken 52-year-old Brian Burrows into custody in reference to the Central District homicide reported last Friday. The post did not list any charges or specify the exact location of the killing, and the department did not immediately release additional information.

Investigators Seek Tips And Leads

Detectives are still working the case and are asking anyone with information to call homicide investigators at 410-396-2100 or send an anonymous tip through Metro Crime Stoppers, as outlined by the Baltimore Police. The department newsroom has been posting similar short arrest advisories in recent months while investigators chase leads across the city.

Central District Casework Continues

The Central District has seen periodic homicide investigations and arrests. As reported in coverage by Hoodline, a notable December 2024 arrest, detectives made another significant collar in the same district late last year. In this latest case, the department has not released further details and is again asking residents to share any footage or tips that could help investigators.
