Fremont Ave. for a report of a person not breathing. Officers found a man with a gunshot wound to his body. He was pronounced deceased at the scene. Filmmaker Matthew Holden Warren said he found the body around 5:30 p.m. Holden Warren, 41, lives in Fells Point and helps run the Arabber Preservation Society, which owns the stable. Holden Warren had arrived at the stable to check on his pony, Wooly.

But on closer examination, he said he realized that the man had been shot in the face and called police.
