A 65-year-old man is in custody after a double shooting inside a senior living facility Thursday morning left one man dead, Baltimore Police said.

SWAT swept the building and found the suspect, who uses a wheelchair and is a resident of Pleasant View Gardens Senior, inside. Police said they believe they have recovered the weapon.

The shooting led to closures on Fayette Street between Aisquith and Eden streets. Central Avenue from Baltimore to Orleans streets was also shut down. Police temporarily closed a larger portion of the street because there was an empty wheelchair nearby, but it was quickly determined that wheelchair was not connected to the incident.

The National Academy Foundation and Paul Laurence Dunbar High School were on lockdown, a Baltimore City Public Schools spokesperson said. The two schools share the same campus in the 1400 block of Orleans Street, which is a five-minute walk from where the shooting occurred at Pleasant View Gardens Senior.

Pleasant View Gardens Senior is a 62 and older community that offers one-bedroom, 680-square-foot apartments for about $1,200 per month with amenities like a recreation room, laundry facility and group exercise.

Representatives from Pleasant View Gardens told The Banner they are unable to comment at the moment.
