On January 19, 2026, Western District officers responded to an apartment complex in the 1100 block of Park Avenue in reference to multiple calls for service, including a welfare check, a disorderly person, and a report of an armed person.
Once on scene, officers observed several residents outside of the complex due to a fire alarm having been pulled. An officer entered the building and encountered an individual who was screaming and wielding a large knife.
The officer announced himself as a Baltimore Police officer, at which time the individual ran into an apartment. After observing blood in the hallway, officers attempted to enter the apartment.
Additional officers arrived on scene and attempted to de-escalate the situation by speaking with the individual through the door. Officers gave verbal commands for the individual to exit the apartment and drop the knife.
The individual exited the apartment holding the knife in one hand and an electrical stun stick in the other. The individual failed to comply with officers’ commands. Multiple officers deployed their tasers in attempt to subdue the individual; however, the tasers were ineffective. One of the officers then discharged their service weapon, striking the individual.
The individual continued to resist as officers were initially unable to secure the knife. Officers continued with verbal commands and de-escalation efforts, utilizing their training while maintaining space and distance.
The individual eventually dropped the knife and electrical stun stick, allowing officers to take her into custody. She was transported to an area hospital for treatment of two gunshot wounds.
The individual has been identified as 48-year-old Autumn Elizabeth Denny. She is currently facing assault and weapons charges.
The involved BPD officer was Officer Kevin Wilson, a three-year veteran.
Investigators from the Special Investigations Response Team (SIRT) are investigating the incident.

The person was obviously looking to be suicided by cop. They could have tried to tase the person first before shooting. There were like 6 cops and one person with a knife. Talk about overreaction. Tase first and if that doesn't work, then shoot. The one cop had the taser ready to go so why didn't they try that first.

Is that another transvestite? I thought it was a guy but the description says female... That's a huge bitch.

Taser dudes didn't fire until lead was flying, and one had his aimed at at the floor. Need better training if they're going to use them. Otherwise stick to slinging lead.
