Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) Police are investigating a suspected shooting on northbound Interstate 95 near Exit 54 (Hanover Street) in Baltimore, after a driver reported gunfire around 10:45 a.m. on Sunday. The driver of a gray Chevrolet sedan told police that someone in a light-blue passenger vehicle shot at them. No injuries were reported.

The release also asked anyone who saw suspicious activity near northbound I-95 at Exit 54 around that time to contact MDTA Police at 410-537-6700.
Highway safety context
This is not the first time I-95 has doubled as a crime scene in recent years. The interstate has seen other shootings and road-rage investigations, including a November 2024 case in Laurel that shut down northbound lanes while state police collected evidence, as reported by WBALTV. The Maryland Transportation Authority notes that its police force patrols the state's toll bridges, tunnels, and highways and works with partner agencies on interstate cases, according to the agency's online materials.
