The shooting happened shortly after Patterson closed up shop at La Scala Ristorante Italiano and was on the way home.

According to charging documents, detectives found through video footage from a doorbell camera that Patterson parked on the 1700 block of Eastern Avenue around 1:05 a.m. and went to a liquor store. When Patterson came back from the liquor store, he placed items in his trunk and got back in the driver’s seat of his car.

A gold minivan then allegedly blocked Patterson into the parking spot. An armed passenger got out and could be seen in the footage forcefully pulling Patterson’s door open. After a struggle, the suspect shot Patterson once.

The same minivan was seen in surveillance footage of two earlier robberies in Fells Point that night, the documents said.

Detectives developed Wise as a suspect after reviewing camera footage, conducting interviews, and examining physical evidence. An arrest warrant was obtained and Wise was arrested Tuesday in West Baltimore.

Police said Wise was transported to police headquarters, where he was interviewed by homicide detectives. After the interview, Wise allegedly tried to escape the headquarters but was apprehended.

Wise is being held at Central Booking and is waiting to see a court commissioner.
