Police investigating killing as possible case of self-defense

A man was fatally shot in a house in the 2100 block of Boyd St. in West
Baltimore early yesterday, and police said they and the state’s
attorney’s office are investigating the incident as a possible case of
self-defense.

Tyrone Lewis, 26, of the 2100 block of Lyndhurst Ave. was one of two men
who broke down the front door of a house about 6:50 a.m. and confronted
the owner and his wife in a rear bedroom, police said.

The owner, whom police declined to name, fired a .38- caliber handgun at
the intruders, hitting Lewis in the chest. Lewis was taken by ambulance
to Maryland Shock Trauma, where he died. The other man was being sought.
