BALTIMORE — A 30-year-old woman who was shot and killed in Glen Burnie Tuesday night is being remembered by her father as a loving mother and a hard-working nurse.
Natasha Harris was shot multiple times around 7:30 p.m. in the parking lot of the Mountain Ridge Apartments in the 200 block of Snow Cap Court, according to Anne Arundel County Police.
“I get a call from Anne Arundel County Police telling me my daughter was shot dead in the parking lot on her way to work,” said her father, Dwight Harris.
Harris died on the way to the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center, where she worked as a nurse and was on her way to start her shift.
