C-H-A-O-S


To the Johns Hopkins Medicine community

Baltimore City Police are investigating the report that someone was seen walking north on Broadway with a gun. No one was harmed. No shots were fired. The person is no longer on the East Baltimore medical campus. Out of an abundance of caution, we alerted our staff through a text alert system.  

Also, be advised that a building several blocks from The Johns Hopkins Hospital is on fire. 

Baltimore City is under a curfew from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. The Mayor has said that if you are going or coming from work or have a medical emergency, you will not be impacted by the curfew.


If traveling to the East Baltimore medical campus, please check news reports and traffic advisories, and use alternate routes, if necessary. Please be careful.  ​​

Cash for Diabetic Test Strips

Need extra cash?!  

This gem was found scatter on the ground outside of a Baltimore Metro station.  The "advertisement" did make note that this was completely legal to sell your diabetic strips.  ::What a relief!::

P.S. They also buy cases of Ensure and Diapers.

Lexington Market Metro Station 

YES!! It's legal to sell your diabetic test strips.

Baltimore is the heroin capital of America

You heard it right!  We finally made it!  We're the heroin capital of America!!

"Lexington Market is one of the longest running food markets in the world. But these days, the area has gained a reputation for drugs."

Luckily, I live only a block away from Lexington Market to get my daily fix.

Car Bang

To the East Baltimore campus

Corporate Security has been advised by the Baltimore Police Department, Eastern District, that there have been recent reports of groups of juveniles converging on vehicles and vandalizing the vehicles while stopped at traffic lights.  Some drivers have been assaulted when doors were left unlocked and/or the windows were in the down position. 

As the summer approaches, we would like to remind everyone to remain vigilant while traveling:
  • Always be aware of your surroundings when walking, cycling or driving.
  • Ensure that your car doors are locked at all times.
  • Keep your windows at a level that prevents anyone from gaining access inside the vehicle while stopped in traffic.

A recent incident occurred in the 1000 block of East Madison Street (at Ensor Street), which the Baltimore Police Department is actively investigating. If you have any information regarding this or other incidents, please contact the Baltimore Police Department, Eastern District, at 410-396-2433.

All Aboard! The Train is Now Leaving the Station.

Metro
I'm an avid user of the public transportation system in Baltimore.  It's the easiest way to get to work.  I've seen a lot on the metro, but this one takes the cake.

The train pulled up to the hospital, and everyone got off, except this guy...

I guess this is normal occurrence because people boarded the train, and actually sat around this guy.  It wasn't until the train conductor arrived and told people to exit the train.

Charm City, you never cease to surprise me!
