Seat Pleasant Police Officers Apprehend a Mother Who Shot Her Daughter

Detectives charged 32-year-old Talecka Brown of Seat Pleasant, Maryland with first-degree attempted murder.

On September 23, 2024, at approximately 4:50 pm, officers with the Seat Pleasant Police Department responded to the 500 block of 69th Place Seat Pleasant, Maryland 20743 for a shooting. Upon arrival, officers found a 13-year-old female suffering from a gunshot wound to the upper body. She was immediately transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition.

 

The Prince George’s County Police Department’s Gun Crimes Unit responded to assist and assumed investigative responsibility. It has been determined that Talecka used a firearm within the home to shoot the victim. Talecka has been charged with first-degree attempted murder amongst other charges and is currently at the Department of Corrections awaiting to see a commissioner.

 

Acting Chief Heyward stated, “I have to commend my officers for their rapid response and decisive actions at the scene. It is always tragic when we have acts of violence within our community, but it is heart wrenching when the perpetrator is supposed to be your protector. I am glad to hear that the victim is recovering at a local hospital, but the emotional trauma will remain for some time. The Seat Pleasant Police Department is committed to working with the Prince George’s County State’s Attorney’s Office and the Prince George’s County Police to ensure we hold Ms. Brown accountable for her actions.”
