1 slain, 1 hurt in Clifton Park shooting

One man was killed and another man injured by gunfire early yesterday morning near Clifton Park.

Baltimore police said officers were called to the 3200 block of Lyndale Ave. about 2 a.m., where they found two men on the front porch of a home. One had been shot in the shoulder and one in the chest, said Officer Nicole Monroe, a spokeswoman for the police.

Both were taken to local hospitals, and the man shot in the chest was pronounced dead at 2:30 a.m.

Monroe said she could not release their identities last night because the slain man's family had not been notified.
