Police Use Facial Recognition To Identify Suspect Arrested in Baltimore Clerk Killing

Court filings show the 52-year-old remained on supervised probation from earlier cases.

Overview

  • Brian Burrows, 52, is charged with murder, armed robbery and related weapons offenses in the Feb. 13 shooting of clerk Khaled Saleh Mohamed Alshariki at Broadway Mart in East Baltimore.
  • Surveillance video shows the assailant shoot the cashier once, take cash from the register, and leave; Alshariki died at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
  • Investigators linked the same man to a second armed robbery two days later at a store on North Bond Street, based on surveillance and witness identifications.
  • The Warrant Apprehension Task Force arrested Burrows on Feb. 19 at a residence on Linden Heights in Northwest Baltimore; a bail review is set for Monday.
  • Records detail prior felony convictions, including a largely suspended 2018 armed-robbery sentence and a 2017 drug case, as well as missed treatment and an absconder warrant in 2025.
