Baltimore police detectives said they have arrested a man in connection to a fatal case of domestic violence.
Authorities said 19-year-old Tyrone Alston was arrested Friday in connection with the murder of Tashawna Jones.
On Oct. 12, officers were called to the 300 block of E. 26th Street where medics were treating a woman who was bleeding from an apparent head trauma. The victim was transported to Johns Hopkins Hospital where it was learned she had been shot in the head.
