BALTIMORE (WBFF) — 2022 is shaping up to be one of the deadliest years in at least the last five, when it comes to teens being shot and killed.
Nykayla Strawder was 15 when she was shot and killed by a 9-year-old.
She is just one of the many teen lives taken by gun violence.
Sean Kennedy of the Maryland Public Policy Institute says the problem has gotten worse in the last few years.
