WomanÊ severelyÊ injuredÊ byÊ franticÊ hit-and-run,Ê 3Ê othersÊ shotÊ inÊ unrelatedÊ FellÕ sÊ PointÊ incident In the early morning of Saturday, February 6 at approximately 2:15 a.m., a hit-and-run occurred on the 700 block of S. Broadway. The bizarre car crash severely injured a 27 year-old woman who was exiting a nearby bar. A video of the event which went viral, shows a mini-van accelerating forward and hitting a stopped car, then backing up and driving onto the sidewalk and running over the victim before fleeing the location. Also, before and during the driverÕ s rampage, multiple unidentified men can been seen banging on the vanÕ s window and yelling as the driver is seemingly trying to escape. During a press conference, T.J. Smith, the Baltimore City Police DepartmentÕ s director of media relations, called the video Ò absolutely horrific and disgustingÓ and said the injured woman is currently in the hospital in serious condition with injuries including broken ribs and bruised lungs. He assured that, while serious, her injuries are not life-threatening. – CONTINUED ON PAGE 4 –

Civil rights activist DeRay Mckesson filed to run for mayor on Wednesday, February 3, just minutes before the deadline. Following the death of Freddie Gray and the subsequent Baltimore Uprising in April 2015, Mckesson has become a leading voice for the Black Lives Matter movement. He has made appearances at various protests, advocated on national television shows, and has worked with other politicians to further his cause calling for police accountability. Ò It is true that I am a non-traditional candidateÑ I am not a former Mayor, City Councilman, state legislator, philanthropist or the son of a well-connected family. I am an activist, organizer, former teacher, and district administrator that intimately understands how interwoven our challenges and our solutions are.Ó He is also a member of the organization Campaign Zero, which is focused on ending police violence. Since April, he has amassed a significant social media following. Mckesson said that he will unveil his platform this week. If his Twitter presence is any indication, MckessonÕ s campaign will likely have an emphasis on ending policy brutality, bettering the cityÕ s education, and improving public health. Ò I have come to realize that the traditional pathway to politics, and the traditional

politicians who follow these well-worn paths, will not lead us to the transformational change our city needs. Many have accepted that our current political reality is fixed and irreversibleÑ that we must resign ourselves to accept the way that City Hall functions, or the role of money and connections in dictating who runs and wins elections,Ó Mckesson wrote on the blogging website Medium.com. Mckesson is the 13th candidate to enter the mayoral race. He joins a crowded field of Democrats including former mayor Sheila Dixon, businessman David Warnock, Councilman Carl Stokes and Senator Catherine Pugh. The democratic primary is April 26.

Following a loss in last weekÕ s Iowa caucus, former Maryland governor and Baltimore mayor, Martin OÕ Malley has dropped out of the presidential race. OÕ Malley announced his candidacy in June in Federal Hill, promoting a more liberal platform by pushing for economic equality, Ò zero tolerance policingÓ , and raising the minimum wage. Ò Words cannot express how grateful I am to all of you, my true friends who have helped me in waging this courageous battle,Ó OÕ Malley told his supporters as he suspended his campaign. Ò When I got into this eight months ago, I had no doubt that it would be anything but a tough fight. And it is a tough fight. But I have always been drawn to a tough fight. Ò he said during his announcement. Ò Together we all stood up for working people, for new Americans, for the future of the Earth and the safety of our children. We put these issues at the front of our
partyÕ s agendaÑ these are the issues that serve the best interests of our nation.Ó OÕ Malley came in third place in Iowa, trailing behind frontrunners Senator Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, both in votes and media coverage, with less than 1% of the votersÕ support. Ò We must hold strong to our beliefs. A belief in the dignity of every person. A belief in our own responsibility to advance the common good we share. We all must hold strong to what this country truly is, can be, and should be, and must be,Ó said OÕ Malley. Ò I wish Governor OÕ Malley the very best. He is a great public servant, who has served Maryland and our country,Ó said Hillary Clinton during her speech after her Iowa victory. OÕ Malley was the governor of Maryland from 2007 until 2015 and the mayor of Baltimore from 1999 to 2007.

Celebrating ten years and 700 graduates of Project JumpStart
EXCHANGE CLUB OF HIGHLANDTOWN-CANTON, INC.
BY GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM
Ò
wishes to thank the following restaurants & taverns for their generous donation of the gift certificates for our 6th Annual “Taste of Our Community” raffle:
Ò The biggest reason is a lack of employment skills and a lack of employment chances and opportunity. JumpStart addresses both of those issues,Ó said Ferrens. Ò ItÕ s been a life saver for me. JumpStart graduates are in that 25% of ex-offenders that will never, ever go back.Ó The following speaker was Mark Holden, the senior vice president of Koch Industries, which employs JumpStart graduates. Holden spoke about the disparity in the justice system and the unfair stigma ex-offenders face, even after theyÕ ve served their time.
…just find somebody that believes in you. Ò We should open our hearts and minds and welcome returning citizens back and help them succeed. Who here hasnÕ t had or needed a second chance? The scarlet letter Ô FÕ for felon never seems to wash off and we need to change that.Ó The eveningÕ s keynote speaker was Mike Rowe, the host of CNNÕ s SomebodyÕ s Gotta Do It and DiscoveryÕ s Dirty Jobs. Before the gala, Rowe met with some of JumpStartÕ s graduates to discuss how the program has changed their lives. He said that Baltimore, in such a trying time, needs more programs dedicated to lifting people up. Ò Everybody in this room tonight is never going to be able to relate to the exact circumstances that brought 700 people to Project JumpStart. Most of us will never live on the street, most of us have never been incarcerated. But all of us have looked at our own reflection in the mirror at some point in our lives and have wanted or needed to make a change.Ó
Ò
On Saturday, January 30, the Build Baltimore Gala honored the tenth anniversary of Project JumpStart, a workshop development program that teaches ex-offenders job skills. Project JumpStart aims to change lives by giving formerly incarcerated people a chance to start over and give back through 14-week classes taught by skilled instructors. Since 2006, Project JumpStart has helped over 700 students graduate and secure jobs and apprenticeships that will lead to a better future. The sold-out gala, which also acted as a fundraiser, celebrated the programÕ s success. Ò Baltimore City has many talented and motivated individuals and the thing that we figured out so well is how to channel that motivation and talent into success in a career,Ó said Kate McShane, JumpStartÕ s placement director. Ò They give second chances to people who are trying to redeem themselves.Ó Ò Despite the setbacks that our city faced in the national media, we know there are a lot of positive stories out there that are not getting told. We also know there are a lot of businesses in the city that believe in developing their workforce, we know there are a lot of Baltimore residents that would make terrific employees if only given the right opportunities. We know this because weÕ ve seen it over and over again in the past ten years through Project JumpStart,Ó said Dave Chapin, the chairman of Associated Builders and Contractors, which created Project JumpStart along with the Job Opportunities Task Force. McShane said that JumpStart earned its success through three ways: laying down a pathway to success, creating relationships between employers and employees, and most importantly, by promoting hope. Two JumpStart graduates, Toemore Knight and Tyrone Ferrens, are emblematic of the power of this hope. Knight teared up as he addressed the galaÕ s crowd. Ò No one would hire me,Ó he said about the difficulties he had after being released from jail. Ò Project JumpStart helped me with a lot of my barriers when I came here.Ó He said that the volunteers at the programs encourage him to be a better person and to create a better future for himself. McShane calls both graduates monthly for updates on their progress, Knight said. Ò If you never do anything else, find somebody that believes in you.Ó Ferrens then spoke about how 75% of offenders will be re-incarcerated within five years of their release.

HIT-N-RUN/SHOOTING:Ê Tragedy in Fell’s Point Smith said that police arrived at the scene quickly and within hours identified the driver of the van as 37-year-old Orlando Redd, a resident of Parkville. He was taken into custody after being found a few blocks away from where the incident occurred. Redd is believed to have been under the influence of alcohol. Currently, the BPD doesnÕ t have any information about the context of the dispute that seemed to have motivated Redd to hit the cars and jump the sidewalk. Redd faces a multitude of traffic-related violations and the BPD is working with the stateÕ s attorney office to determine any additional criminal charges. Currently, he is charged with 1st-degree assault, two counts of 2nd-degree assault, malicious destruction of property, and two counts of endangerment. Ò That particular area has a number of bars and restaurants and 2:15 a.m. is the time that many people are leaving so weÕ re fortunate that weÕ re not talking about a much larger tragedy as a result of these acts,Ó said Smith who called the incident a Ò series of unfortunate events.Ó The police are currently interviewing witnesses to identify the other men involved in the dispute and to determine what caused the altercation as well as ReddÕ s intent during the incident. Ò You see that chaotic scene play out and you just hold your breath. WeÕ re fortunate that weÕ re not talking about a much larger tragedy as a result of these reckless acts,Ó said Smith. The victim had since been identified as Jill Boram, who was leaving the Dogwatch Tavern at the time of the incident. A GoFundMe page has been set up by friends to raise money for surgeries and the long recovery ahead. Ò One thing that Baltimore does well is band together to support our neighbors. Please
consider helping them in any way that you can. All of the money raised will go directly to the Borams to help them get through this,Ó states the page. As of noon Tuesday, the page had raised over $52,000 from over 1,300 individuals. BoramÕ s mother posted an update on her daughterÕ s condition on the page. Ò Please keep her in your prayers as she has surgery to repair her injuries...they say not lifethreatening but most definitely life-altering,Ó she wrote. To donate, visit www.gofundme.com/ jillboram. Less than an hour before the hit-and-run, three people were shot in FellÕ s Point inside the Santa Clara Restaurant at 529 S. Bond St. Police said that the two incidents were unrelated. Ò ItÕ s a coincidence that they happened in close proximity, but neither has anything to do with the other,Ó Smith said. According to police, at 1:35 a.m., three men open fired inside the restaurant. Three people were injured. Ò Upon arrival officers located two adult Hispanic males, both of whom were suffering from gunshot wounds to the head. A third man was found with a gunshot wound to the foot. He refused medical treatment. The two victims who were shot in the head were taken to an area hospital and are now in critical condition,Ó states the Baltimore Police report. Three suspects have been arrested in relation to the shooting. Melvin Zavala, 20, of Gough St., Nehemias Batista, 25, of Halethorpe, MD, and Argueta Andres, 24, of Varder St. remain in Central Booking. It is suspected that the shooting was the result of a dispute that occurred inside the bar. Homicide detectives are currently investigating the shooting as the case is still open.

LegislationÊ couldÊ helpÊ residentsÊ combatÊ problemÊ barsÊ withÊ zoningÊ laws by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM
officers will also educate license holders on the provisions of their permits. The zoning code can also limit where bars are built and the days and hours when alcohol is sold. Ò If youÕ re a good operator, youÕ re going to be fine. ItÕ s the bad ones that weÕ re focusing on with this,Ó she said. Ò The idea is to have a set of rules that business have to adhere to.Ó She said that concerned residents cannot always count of the Liquor Board to properly punish nuisance bars, which is why the community needs to take control. Ò Sometimes the Liquor Board isnÕ t doing what its supposed to do in some capacities. ThereÕ s a lack of consistency in the laws that are being regulated and their enforcement. We hope to provide some consistency and standards,Ó said Greisen. She added that, as shown by research done in 2011, zoning laws can override the decisions of the liquor board. The process begins when the community lodges a complaint with the advisory board, this complaint then is sent to the Zoning Board who can then lay down punishments, such as enhanced fees. Ò Creating a new avenue through the cityÕ s zoning powers - complementary to the state liquor licensing board - provides more opportunities for citizen input into and engagement in the practices of local alcohol outlets,Ó states the coalitionÕ s website. According to documents provided by the coalition, this type of program has been successful. Other large cities have seen a reduction in alcohol-related violence and nuisance bars since this legislation. The legislation is sponsored by Councilman Nick Mosby of District 7 and a final draft of the proposal will be officially introduced to City Council on February 22. For more information on the Baltimore Good Neighbors Coalition, visit www. bmoreneighborly.org.

New proposed legislation is hoping to give the community a voice in the regulation and enforcement of nuisance bars. The Baltimore Good Neighbors Coalition is an organization based around addressing the negative effects of the cityÕ s large number of the alcohol-serving establishments. Cassie Greisen, a program manager at the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth at the JHU Bloomberg School of Public Health, explained that an oversaturation of bars has a variety of impacts on the surrounding community. Ò In Baltimore City, each additional alcohol outlet in a neighborhood is associated with a 2.2% increase in violent crime, with each additional outlet selling alcohol for offpremise consumption associated with a 4.8% increase,Ó states the coalitionÕ s website. Property damage, drunk driving, disorderly conduct, and underage drinking are just some of the issues of bars, which Greisen calls Ò alcohol outlets.Ó She added that children in bar-heavy areas are more likely to witness and participate in illegal activity. Ò Baltimore has double the number of liquor licenses recommended by state legislation,Ó she said. She then called the coalition a Ò solution to an ongoing problemÓ where residents can address public health and safety issues by being proactive. Ò We have residents from across the city, from developers, to community association presidents, to business owners, that are in the coalition. TheyÕ re not just focused on the amount of bars, but the problematic alcohol outlets as well. ItÕ s another avenue to address this ongoing problem.Ó One way the coalition is hoping to make an impact is through utilizing zoning. Greisen explained that zoning laws can help alleviate the impact of problem bars through expanded and more easily enforceable nuisance ordinances and improved law enforcement practices. It also takes the responsibility of enforcement out of the Liquor BoardÕ s hands and puts it in the cityÕ s control. Zoning can ensure that businesses live up to performance and operational standards as well as allowing for surveillance and routine enforcement. Also under the legislation, alcohol outlets would have to pay a fee of approximately $300 a year to fund the coalition and its programming. Some of this programming includes an advisory board and Ò Public Nuisance Prevention and Abatement OfficersÓ that would patrol and monitor problem bars. These

Tochterman’s keeps it reel for 100 years
In 1916, a gallon of gas cost 15 cents, a dozen eggs cost 14 cents, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra hosted its first concert, Harry Houdini visited Baltimore, and Tochterman’s Fishing Tackle opened in Fell’s Point. On Monday, February 8, Tochterman’s celebrated its 100th birthday. The fishing supply and tackle store at 1925 Eastern Ave. has passed through three generations over the century. Tony Tochterman, the current owner, attributes their business’ success to their own tried-and-true approach to customer service. The secret recipe for such a loyal customer base? Honesty, faithfulness, and being personable. “When you come here, it should be like coming to a friend’s garage. It’s where you can sit down and talk, there’s no rush. That’s what it’s all about,” he said. Tony added that Tochterman’s is the oldest continually family-owned business that is in the same location in the United States. Their store sign, the signature neon fish, was put up in 1938 and is considered a historical landmark by the Baltimore Historical Society. Amidst the displays of bug-eyed neon green lures, fishing lines that hang like streamers, and gleaming hooks of all sizes, is a cabinet that Tochterman personally keeps as a testament to the store’s history. In the cabinet are old photographs and reels from every decade. Some are rusted and bulky while others are sleek and chrome, but all represent a multi-generational success story made possible by smiling faces behind the counter and a supportive community. Tochterman’s was opened in 1916 by his grandfather, Thomas Tochterman, who was working at a fish market that is now the Port Discovery building. Since refrigerating seafood was difficult at the time, his grandfather would sell the seafood as bait out of his Eastern Ave. home as his wife cooked fish for the customers. His father, Thomas Jr., then took over the store in the 1930s which is when they began selling more than just slightly-spoiled seafood. His father brought in every type of lure, hooks, and lines that one could imagine. He also brought in guns and hunting materials, which were removed from the store in 1986. “All we carry is fishing tackle. Most stores carry fishing and hunting. We had a lot of guns, but Baltimore City and guns,” he pauses, “That doesn’t work together too well.” Tochterman said his father taught him the . importance of interacting with the customer,
especially when you are a small business competing with larger big-box stores. “Any small business that doesn’t understand customer service, that the customer always comes first, shouldn’t stay in business. It’s about honesty and faithfulness towards your customer. You gotta make them feel like they’re the most important person in the world. That turns around and gets you faith from the customer to you. These people will drive past one, two, three, four, stores just to come down here,” he said. Tony began “working” at the store when he was 4 years-old and received his first paycheck when he was 12. His father would assign him menial organizational jobs, such as arranging hooks by size and lures by color. He also would have to take apart fishing reels and then put them back together. In these seemingly dull tasks, he learned about the equipment inside and out, what each item was used for, and the importance of hard work. “After a while of doing that, you learn how to do it and you learn all the schematics of it. You make enough mistakes, but then you eventually learn how everything fits together. He taught me with hands-on experience and I loved coming in here,” he said. This love never wavered. Tochterman and his wife, Dee, operate the store seven days a week from open to close.
“
He said that Tochterman’s story is just one of many in the area who are supported by the loyalty of the community. He references places like DiPasquale’s Italian Marketplace and Attman’s Delicatessen who have also celebrated their 100th birthday recently. And just because Tochterman’s is 100 years old doesn’t mean it’s getting old. They have plans to add new brands and items to the store, such a full selection of clothing for the “fisherman lifestyle” like insulated vests or button-up shirts for a night out on the town after a day of fishing. Also, Tochterman’s store manager, Rich Dennison, created weekly fishing seminars that teach any fisherman, from the beginners to the experts, the tricks and tips of the trade. Starting on February 27, Dennison will host classes about trolling for rockfish in the Chesapeake Bay. He and other members of the store’s experienced staff, will teach you about rod placement, how to choose the right reel, leader length, and much more. Tochterman credits the store’s longevity to the support and loyalty of his customers. He said the best part of his job is when a happy customer comes in eager to show off photos of their catch or to brag about a recent trip. “That’s what I want to do for them, I want to help them. It makes you feel good to make him feel good. It makes your job not a job.”

million voidable option this year (his option was based on milestones achieved, which he did). - Pablo Sandoval has a five year contract worth $95 million with the Boston Red Sox along with a club option in 2020 worth $17 million. Now I would say Machado is better than all of these players even at his young age. He can hit, run the bases and is one of, if not the best, defensive third basemen in the game. Most of the aforementioned deals are just under $20 million a year, but for Baltimore to wrap Machado up long-term, it will take a number north of $20 million. While that sounds like a lot of money (and yes, it is a lot of money) it will only get more expensive when you look at some other young third basemen that are close to Machado’s age such as Nolan Arenado and Kris Bryant. When they hit free agency, watch out! The same goes for Josh Donaldson, but he is 30 years old and is just entering his first year of arbitration. If the O’s are smart, now that they have Davis taken care of, it’s time to take care of Machado. I feel a deal for eight years and $200 million might be a steal for them in the long run.

Making offers for Machado After finally signing a cornerstone of their offense in Chris Davis for the next seven years, the Baltimore Orioles should work on locking up the person on the opposite side of the diamond from Davis for a very long time. I’m talking about Manny Machado. Currently Machado is 23 years old and is fresh off his best season yet where he finished fourth in the AL MVP vote. He also was an All Star for the second time and won his second Gold Glove. While it might cost the O’s a lot of money to lock him up long-term, it will save them in the long-term for sure. If we look at some other highly paid third basemen, here are their current deals: - David Wright has an eight year deal worth $138 million from the New York Mets. - Kyle Seager has a seven year deal worth $100 million from the Seattle Mariners, plus a $15 million club option for 2022. - Evan Longoria has a six year deal worth $100 million from 2017 to 2022 with a club option worth $13 million in 2023. - Matt Carpenter has a six year deal with the St. Louis Cardinals worth $52 million along with a club option in 2020 worth $18.5 million. - Adrian Beltre has a five year deal with the Texas Rangers worth $80 million plus a $16
