Police obtain warrant for man accused in woman's fatal beating

The Baltimore Sun

Baltimore police said yesterday they had obtained an arrest warrant for a man accused of fatally beating a woman in her Mt. Vernon apartment this month, possibly during a dispute.

The victim, Ashley Marie Bellosi, 23, suffered severe head and neck injuries July 7 in an apartment in the 800 block of St. Paul St., police said.

She was taken to Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where she was hospitalized until her death Wednesday, authorities said.

Police did not release the suspect's name.

It was not immediately clear whether the woman lived in the apartment or whether she had been visiting.

Bellosi was this year's 169th homicide victim. Last year at this time, 141 people had been slain in the city.
