BALTIMORE (AP) — A 17-year-old boy has pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in the fatal shooting of an Israeli man who was visiting Baltimore for a wedding last year. The Baltimore Sun reports that Rasheed Morris is the second person to enter a guilty plea in the May 2021 shooting death of 31-year-old Efraim Gordon. Eighteen-year-old Omarion Anderson pleaded guilty last month to first-degree murder. Nineteen-year-old William Clinton III was also charged with first-degree murder, armed robbery and attempted carjacking offenses. Gordon, who was in town to attend his cousin’s wedding, was shot during a robbery while walking to his aunt’s and uncle’s house in northeast Baltimore. He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
