A Baltimore police officer shot a man just steps from an elementary school 12:40 p.m. when a member of the SWAT team on routine patrol on Westwood Avenue passed a 1993 Chrysler New Yorker and observed a man duck inside the parked car. The officer fired, striking the man in the leg, police said. But the incident was not over.
