BALTIMORE -- A 19-year-old woman, who was shot multiple times in Baltimore's Federal Hill neighborhood on October 27, died Thursday night, her mother said in a social media post.
Cameron Holt, 19, of Anne Arundel County, had been fighting for her life in shock trauma since the shooting almost two weeks prior, her mother, Roxanne Spath told WJZ.
"At 7:54 tonight God gained another angel peacefully surrounded by her family. She's no longer suffering or in pain. Cameran's bravery is giving someone her big heart and liver tonight- that's how beautiful my baby girl is," Spath wrote. "She was loved by all, down to the end and she was given an honor walk with Rein beside her one last time. Thank you all again for your prayers and support during this tragic time. We love you all."
Baltimore police responded to the shooting on West Hamberg Street around 3:30 a.m. where they found Holt with gunshot wounds. A 28-year-old man was also shot.
