The morning after 12-year-old Breaunna Cormley was shot and killed in the McElderry Park neighborhood of East Baltimore, the block was completely empty until Terry McDonald walked outside around 9:30 a.m., sat on his front porch and lit a cigarette. Through his bifocals he gazed across the street at 509 Kenwood Ave., where he said the young girl lived. McDonald said Cormley was friends with his daughter and he used to fix her bike.
“She was quiet. She’d go to school. She’d come home. She wouldn’t come outside; she would always be in the house with her grandmother,” McDonald said about Cormley, whose social media account followed celebrities like Zendaya and Millie Bobby Brown, performers including Snoop Dogg and Bruno Mars and numerous dog accounts, including multiple featuring Golden Retrievers and pugs.
“She never really interacted with none of the other little kids out here.”
