Baltimore Police identified Versey Spell, a 75-year-old woman reported missing in October, as the person found inside a container in Northwest Baltimore this month.
Spell, who was a longtime gameday staff member for the Orioles, was reported missing Oct. 19 from her Northwest Baltimore home on the 3900 block of Barrington Road in the Dorchester neighborhood.
On March 7, police were called to the 3900 block of Liberty Heights Avenue and found a black container with human remains outside a house near the intersection of Garrison Boulevard and Liberty Heights Avenue, less than half a mile from Spell’s home. The medical examiners’ office identified human remains inside the container and ruled the cause of death a homicide.
Police say detectives continue to investigate the homicide.
Spell was an usher at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the team confirmed in a statement, noting the Orioles are “saddened to hear” of her passing.
“Our Orioles family sends heartfelt condolences to her family and friends,” the team said. “We will miss her warm welcomes at the ballpark.”
