Police suspect that family argument led to shooting
Frederick police believe a family altercation led to a shooting in mid-April in the city's Golden Mile neighborhood, which has led to charges against a Montgomery County man.
Isaiah Jamaar Halliburton, 22, of Derwood, is charged with attempted first-degree murder, use of a firearm in a violent crime, first-degree assault, second-degree assault, carrying a handgun on a person, carrying a loaded handgun on a person, carrying a handgun in a vehicle, carrying a loaded handgun in a vehicle, and two counts of reckless endangerment.
Halliburton was held without bail after a hearing Tuesday in Frederick County District Court.
An attorney listed in court records could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Police believe Halliburton shot his girlfriend's uncle at a family birthday party at a home in the 100 block of Featherstone Place on April 13, according to charging documents in the case.
Members of the family told police that Halliburton's girlfriend, Christina Carroll, had called him and told him she needed him to pick her up after an altercation between several members of the family, according to the documents.
The man who was shot and several other family members were standing outside the home when Halliburton arrived and multiple shots were fired, according to the documents.
The man told police that he was outside when Halliburton pulled up in front of the house, and that he ran as Halliburton fired multiple shots at him with a large black handgun, hitting him in the face and foot.
The man said he ran to a nearby convenience store and called his mother, who picked him up and took him to Frederick Health Hospital, where police interviewed him.
The man said his child's mother told him she'd heard Carroll say, 'He's done. I already made the call,' shortly before Halliburton arrived, according to the documents.
Carroll told police that the man had struck her and her sister, a minor, and that she had called Halliburton to come pick up her and her daughter, but denied telling him anything else.
Officers who responded to the call searched for Halliburton, and were told that he had run into a fitness center in a nearby shopping center.
An officer with a K-9 unit located a black 9-mm handgun in some bushes near the fitness center, according to the charging documents.

Walmart fires migrant workers after Supreme Court let Trump strip them of legal status: report
Walmart has begun laying off employees at some of its Florida stores after a recent Supreme Court ruling allowed the Trump administration to revoke legal protections previously extended to hundreds of thousands of migrants. The company has informed staff in at least two locations that continued employment is contingent on obtaining valid work authorization, individuals familiar with the matter told Bloomberg News. The layoffs stem from the expiration of temporary legal residency status, affecting workers who had previously been permitted to live and work in the US under programs established during the Biden administration. Advertisement 3 Walmart has begun laying off employees who no longer have protected migrant status at some of its Florida stores, according to a report. AP These terminations are tied to compliance with federal I-9 forms, which employers must use to verify both the identity and employment authorization of their workers. While the exact number of terminated employees remains unclear, the move is part of a broader wave of corporate responses to a changing legal landscape. Last month, the Walt Disney Company informed some Florida-based employees who are losing temporary legal status that their jobs would be terminated. Advertisement Disney confirmed that it placed 45 workers on leave after the legal ruling, citing compliance with federal immigration laws as the reason. 'We are committed to protecting the health, safety, and well-being of all our employees who may be navigating changing immigration policies and how they could impact them or their families,' Disney said in a statement. The employees are Venezuelan nationals who had been granted Temporary Protected Status. They will continue to receive benefits while on leave, Disney said. Advertisement According to the company, the decision was made to ensure no employees were unknowingly violating US law due to their changing legal status. 3 Venezuelan migrants react after arriving on a deportation flight from the United States in Venezuela on May 9. REUTERS The Supreme Court ruling is likely to affect as many as half a million migrants, including individuals from Venezuela, Haiti, Nicaragua and Cuba. The ruling effectively permits the Trump administration to end temporary protections for these individuals, who had been allowed to enter the US legally and were often integrated into the workforce. Advertisement The Post has sought comment from Walmart. When reached by Bloomberg News, Walmart declined to comment on the staff reductions or provide details about how many workers may be affected across its 4,600 stores nationwide. The company employs approximately 1.6 million workers in the US — the majority of whom are hourly employees working in retail locations. Immigration advocates and local officials in Florida, which has a large immigrant population, have expressed concern over the ramifications of the ruling. Central Florida, which is home to thousands of Venezuelan migrants, has already begun to feel the ripple effects, Bloomberg News reported. 3 A recent Supreme Court ruling allowed the Trump administration to revoke legal protections previously extended to hundreds of thousands of migrants. AP Many residents from that community had backed Donald Trump in the last presidential election, making the impact of the Supreme Court's decision particularly resonant. State Representative Anna Eskamani, a Democrat who is running for mayor of Orlando, criticized the decision. Advertisement 'Disney sets the standard — other companies in our economy look toward them,' she said. 'We don't have enough workers as it is, so this is a bad situation that's getting worse.' Meanwhile, the Trump administration has not yet issued detailed guidance on how it plans to manage the large number of individuals expected to lose their legal status. Immigration enforcement officials have indicated that anyone lacking valid authorization could be subject to arrest and deportation. Advertisement The Trump administration recently launched a campaign to encourage voluntary departures, offering travel assistance and stipends of up to $1,000 to migrants who choose to leave the country on their own. States like Florida are home to many industries that rely heavily on immigrant labor. Labor shortages continue to plague key sectors such as hospitality, construction, and retail.

Hiker found dead, daughter still missing on Maine's highest mountain
A hiker was found dead and his daughter remains missing after the duo attempted to hike to the summit of Maine's highest mountain, officials said Tuesday. Search efforts are continuing in hopes to find her. Tim Keiderling, 58, and Esther Keiderling, 28, left their campground in Baxter State Park at around 10:15 a.m. Sunday, intending to hike to the 5,269-foot summit of Mount Katahdin, according to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife. Park rangers launched a search for the Keiderlings Monday morning, after discovering their car still parked in a day-use lot on the grounds, according to the department. The rangers searched multiple hiking trails, including the Katahdin Tablelands where the hikers were last seen, but found no signs of the father or daughter. Officials said their probe expanded Tuesday, eventually involving more than 30 game wardens, the Maine Army National Guard, and a search and rescue team with a K-9 crew that joined three helicopters surveying the area from above. The K-9 search team found Tim Keiderling's body at around 2:45 p.m. Tuesday, Baxter State Park said in a social media post. "We know that many of our social media followers share in our deep sadness for the family and friends of Tim Keiderling, and appreciate your support as a teams continue the search for Esther," the post said. Baxter State Park's website describes the Katahdin Trails, which end at the summit of the mountain, as "a very strenuous climb," regardless of the trail hikers choose to follow in order to get there. It also warns that 80% of search and rescues in the park happen on hikers' descents rather than their ascents, and more than 75% of the most serious incidents, including deaths, happen because hikers left their trail.
