Police__Two_teens_killed_51_year_old_wom_1299820000_20140202232456_640_480ABC News Reporting –  Two teenagers have been arrested after police say they burglarized  51-year-old Kimberly Leto’s home and killed her.

“That it was a 14 and 15-year-old is unimaginable. There is a loss of life  and two lives thrown away,” said Baltimore Police Commissioner, Anthony  Batts.

Police originally thought the teens were 14 and 15; they have since corrected  those numbers and confirm that they are charging 14-year-old Alonzo Gorham-Ramos  and 16-year-old Allen Pinkney with Leto’s murder.

“This is a heartbreaking tragedy, on so many levels,” Commissioner Batts said. “Our purpose today is not to claim victory on this arrest, rather it is to limit that such a tragedy occurred in the first place.”

According to police, Gorham-Ramos burglarized Leto’s home back in August.

“To have it so close, just six doors away, that’s really eye opening,” a  neighbor told ABC2.

Leto worked down the street from her Ellwood Avenue home at O’Donnell’s Pub.  Friends describe her as a lively, caring person.   (read more)
