Annapolis, Maryland – A 59-year-old White grandmother was fatally shot outside a strip mall last Thursday. The suspect, a 48-year-old Black woman, was already a person of interest in another local slaying just one week earlier, police say.

At approximately 4:49 p.m. on October 3, emergency services responded to a call for “an unresponsive female in a parked vehicle in the 1700 block of Forest Drive,” according to police.

Despite lifesaving efforts, Allison Faye McIntyre—who is White— succumbed to a gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Later that day, Monet Thompson—who is Black—was arrested “without incident” in connection with McIntyre’s killing.

Thompson has been charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

Annapolis Police Department (APD) Chief Edward Jackson stated that the victim and the alleged killer were known to each other and that the killing was “not random.”

Thompson is also connected—though not charged—in the fatal shooting of John Thomas Logan III, a Black male victim, one week prior.

Court records indicate that though Thompson is a “person of interest” to the shooting death of John Logan III, she has not been charged.

Logan was killed in an apartment complex just a few miles from where McIntyre was shot. While at that scene, APD told their Facebook followers that the situation was not a public threat, though they had not yet made an arrest.

“[APD] are on the scene of a homicide in the 100 block of Georgetown Road,” police stated “There is no danger to the public. The victim’s name is being withheld…”

While many commenters on local Annapolis news threads have highlighted the interracial aspect of the incident, McIntyre’s daughter, who is part Black, claims the comments are inappropriate.

“As I read the comments, I just want to remind you [that] this is my mom,” Desiree McIntyre said “She leaves behind 3 kids… and an infinite amount of people that love here. So take that political crap and negativity elsewhere.”

Annapolis, Maryland, located on the northwestern shore of the Chesapeake Bay, is home to the renowned United States Naval Academy. As of the 2020 census, the city had a population of 40,812, with 49.4% identifying as White, 22.9% as Hispanic, and 21.7% as Black.

Despite its modest size, the city faced a grim reality in 2023, with 9 homicides pushing its per capita homicide rate to 22 per 100,000 residents—more than three times the national average.

Annapolis updates its FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data annually, however, it omits information on the race, age, and gender of both victims and suspects.

Of the seven homicides in Annapolis that led to arrests in 2023, four involved White suspects, while three involved Black suspects.

Even if Black individuals did not commit the two unsolved homicides from 2023, Black suspects would still be overrepresented by 53.5% among homicide suspects.

White people with interpersonal relationships with Black people often find themselves the victims of Black violence.

In September, a 20-year-old White woman was shot and killed in a coastal city of North Carolina after a 21-year-old Black man mishandled a firearm according to police.

Earlier that same month, a White father of two was shot dead in a small upstate New York town after a domestic dispute. A Black man who was in a relationship with his girlfriend’s daughter was charged in connection with the crime.
