Man kills his neighbor because he left early from his party

A man is dead after his neighbour shot him because he left early from his party, police in Maryland said.

Baltimore Police said that the Windsor Mill man has been charged in the shooting death of his neighbour over the weekend.


30-year-old Brandon Jerome Stanfield of Rocky Brook Court, was charged with first-degree murder on Tuesday. Police said that Stanfield shot 39-year-old Michael Jefferson Jr., after an argument.

Stanfield had hosted a cookout earlier in the day, and said that he felt disrespected when Jefferson left early. The defendant went to Jefferson's home with a gun and when the man said he did not want guns in his home, Stanfield shot Jefferson.

Jefferson was found with multiple gunshot wounds at the front door of his home. Jefferson was declared dead at the scene. Stanfield was booked into the Baltimore County Detention Centre after being denied bail.
