CATONSVILLE MD May 27 2018Â Police say that a man is dead after exchanging gunfire with a security guard at a Catonsville business, early Saturday morning.
According to Baltimore County Police, just before 2:00 a.m., officers responded to the 6500 block of Baltimore National Pike, for a shooting.
Investigators say an argument began between the security guards of the business and a male suspect, in the parking lot.
