On Tuesday morning, the Baltimore community mourned the loss of local DJ known as TNT, who was killed in a wrong‑way crash on I‑95, according to CBS Baltimore. Friends and listeners gathered to honor his memory, describing him as a beloved figure who brought music and energy to the city’s airwaves.

In a separate development, the Baltimore City Council voted to create a new Department of Neighborhood Safety, as reported by WBAL News Radio. Council members said the department will centralize resources, improve coordination among police and community groups, and focus on preventing crime in neighborhoods across the city.

Meanwhile, the Baltimore Banner disclosed that a former Baltimore school board member is under investigation for alleged Medicaid fraud and money‑laundering activities. The investigation, which began earlier this year, has prompted calls for greater oversight of public officials’ financial dealings.

In the Canton neighborhood, a doorbell camera captured footage of several young people appearing to conceal a machete, according to FOX Baltimore/WBFF‑TV. Police are reviewing the video and have not released further details about any arrests or ongoing investigation.

Adding a cultural note, The Towerlight reported that a Towson University alum has made a Broadway debut and is scheduled to perform in Baltimore later this month. The alum’s appearance is expected to draw theater enthusiasts and highlight the city’s growing arts scene.

What’s next: A public memorial for DJ TNT is planned for next weekend, with details to be announced by his radio station. The City Council will hold a public hearing on the Department of Neighborhood Safety’s budget and staffing in the coming weeks. Authorities handling the Canton incident have asked residents to report any related information, and the investigation into the former school board member is ongoing.
