BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A 52-year-old Baltimore man is charged in the shooting death of a woman whose body was found last month at the scene of a house fire.
Keith Fleming was arrested Thursday on a charge of first-degree murder in the killing of 55-year-old Pamala Pitts, according to the Baltimore Police Department.
Pitts' remains were found Sept. 14 by firefighters after they put out a fire at a home near Abbott Court and Homewood Avenue, the police department said.
