BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. — Editor's note: The above video is from May 2021.
Police in Florida say they have arrested the suspect wanted for a deadly 2021 barbershop shooting in Carlisle.
Michael Baltimore, 43, was arrested during a fight in Davie, Florida on Jan. 13. According to U.S. Marshals, Baltimore had fought with an employee and had a knife. He also allegedly threatened to retrieve a firearm from his car before fleeing the scene.
Officers reportedly learned that Baltimore had fled the scene in a silver Sedan traveling northbound. Police were able to conduct a traffic stop, and place Baltimore in custody.
A search of the gar produced 2.3 grams of Fentanyl in his pockets as well as a loaded handgun, over 200 grams of marijuana and 818 ecstasy pills.
Baltimore is accused of shooting and killing Kendell Jerome Cook and injuring another man at the GQ Barbershop on North Hanover Street on May 22, 2021, the agency said.
Cook owned the business, and Baltimore worked for him until 2019, according to the agency.
According to police, Baltimore gave a fake name to officers and three fake IDs were found in the car.
“We were very pleased to hear that Michael Baltimore was taken into custody early this morning in Florida,” said Cumberland County District Attorney Sean M. McCormack.
Baltimore was featured in several episodes of the television reality series "90 Day Fiancé," according to U.S. Marshals.
In 2022, he was placed on the U.S. Marshals Service's 15 Most Wanted List, with the agency warning that Baltimore has an extensive criminal history and is known to be violent.
