Tuesday, the trial began for the teenage “squeegee worker” accused of shooting and killing Timothy Reynolds last year in downtown Baltimore.

The first day of trial was emotional for both of the families involved. Emotional for the Reynolds’ family for having to re-live the day and moments leading up to his death, and emotional for the family of the teenage who’s now facing first-degree murder.

That teen, who WMAR-2 News is not naming because he’s a minor, was 14 -years-old during the time of the incident.

It happened at the corner of Light and Conway Street in downtown Baltimore when a group of teenagers who were working as squeegee workers had an encounter with 48-year-old Reynolds.

That encounter led to him grabbing a metal bat from the trunk of his car approaching the teens, and swinging it before he was shot.

In opening statements, the prosecutors argued that since Reynolds was shot five times, they don’t believe it was self-defense.

They said witnesses in the area, camera footage from CCTV and dash cameras has helped dissect what happened that day.

Defense attorneys, however, argued this incident was road rage at its finest.

They claim Reynolds never got his car serviced by the squeegee workers but he had an issue with squeegee workers in general. Defense attorney’s also said he was taking medication for mental illness, and was under the influence when this happened.
