Suicide attempt in apt. building

In my apartment lobby
There is nothing like coming home to your apartment complex to find the EMS in your lobby.  Come to find out that a current tenant was trying to jump from their apartment balcony. Geez, Baltimore isn't that bad.

One of the perks of living in downtown Baltimore = EMS/fire station is down the block.

7-11

7-11 below my apartment complex
I live in area of Baltimore that is ghetto 'upcoming' and 'revitalizing'.  Below my apartment complex are a couple of nice restaurants, Starbucks, BofA, and the 7-11.  The 7-11 is a unique place.  Not only is a local convenient store, but also home aka outdoor camping to many people who live outside of it.

On my way to work, no surprise here, someone getting arrested at 6am
