Gunfire rings out at all hours. Gang members hang their colors in a tree just days after last week?s murder of a 25-year-old man whose mother once walked the streets with a bullhorn railing against violence. Old-timers complain that newcomers from Baltimore City have brought violence with them.

Fear runs rampant in Edgewood, where two murders have occurred on the same block in just over a year and five murders since July 2006.
