Safe Streets worker fatally shot

Thursday, July 1, 2021
Robert Lang, WBAL NewsRadio 1090 and FM 101.5


For the second time this year, an outreach worker for Safe Streets has been shot to death.

Mayor Brandon Scott Thursday night confirmed the death of Kenyell "Benny" Wilson who worked for the city's violence interruption program in Cherry Hill.

Baltimore Police responded to Harbor Hospital at around 4:40 Thursday afternoon responding to a report of a 44-year-old man who had been shot who had driven himself to the hospital. The man later died. Police do not know where the shooting occurred.

The mayor confirmed the wounded man was Wilson.

"Safe Streets has a special place in my heart and I consider the Violence Interrupters who bravely serve this program as a part of my family. Tonight, our brother Kenyell Wilson became a victim of the gun violence he worked every day to prevent. I am deeply saddened and angered that “Benny’s” life was taken in a weak cowardly act,” Scott said in a written statement.

“I have spoken with Commissioner Harrison and directed him to make apprehending the individual or individuals responsible for taking the life of one of our prime examples of changing your life a top priority.

"I ask that you keep Kenyell’s family and his Safe Streets family in your prayers and reflect on ways that you can continue the work of our fallen soldier in your own community. My administration will continue to support Safe Streets and community-based violence interventions like it. We will not be deterred from doing so and will further invest in these interventions that work and will continue to be central to my comprehensive strategy to reduce violence in Baltimore,” Scott added.

It’s Baltimore. Fence it off and provide all the guns and ammo they want. Wait 6 months and start over.

Spent a good bit of my careers in that town and surrounding areas, that is typical of the politicians and the leadership, and especially the majority of the citizens. I do feel sorry for the good folks who are trapped there due to econimic reasons.

Last decent mayor there was William Donald Shaeffer, a democrat with some balls. There's been none there with any balls since.

And yet it's the White Supremacist that are the real problem. Why, I bet it was a white guy that shot Brother Wilson. Let those stupid MFer's wipe themselves off the planet.

Kid accidentally threw the wrong gang sign. I mean, the shooter really didn't have any choice BUT to shoot.

Surely they won't send a police officer.

Most of those "social workers" are nothing more than big mouth liberal eggheads. Send them out with no protection and then they can get a real education.
