BALTIMORE — Baltimore Police have identified the suspect and victim involved in a deadly stabbing aboard an MTA bus.
It happened Wednesday afternoon near a shopping center at the intersection of Frankford Avenue and Belair Road.
Police arrived on scene to discover 14-year-old Cortez Lemon suffering from stab wounds. Lemon died shortly after arriving at the hospital.
Witnesses gave officers a description of the suspect, later identified as 18-year-old Brandon Lee Adams Jr.
He was located inside a nearby business soon after the murder.
According to charging documents, Adams claimed Lemon had a knife and tried killing him.
Video surveillance footage, however, painted a different picture.
Police say the video shows Adams as the aggressor, attacking Lemon with a knife.
Adams has a preliminary court hearing scheduled for August 6.
