Baltimore City police identify Christopher Straham as public enemy number one after he allegedly killed a 73-year-old man on Friday, police said.

Straham, 19,  is believed to have brutally stabbed the victim to death with a knife during a robbery along Pulaski Highway, police said.

Police have obtained video of the altercation and have identified Straham through video and images, police said.

The warrant for Straham’s arrest includes first- and second- degree murder, first- and second- degree assault, armed robbery, robbery, theft less than $100 and possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure, police said.
