City police were investigating the fatal stabbing of a man Monday night. Southern District police officers found James Flannery, 23, leaning against a wall in the 3900 block of S. Hanover St. in the Brooklyn neighborhood about 10:16 p.m., suffering from multiple stab wounds. Officer Troy Harris, a police spokesman, said officers responded to a call for an injured person after Flannery had been attacked by a group of males. Flannery was taken to Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where he was pronounced dead at 11:11 p.m. Police had no address for Flannery, though court records related to a second-degree arson conviction in 2006 show an address on Eighth Street in Brooklyn.

A Glen Burnie teenager was sentenced to a Michigan facility for juvenile offenders yesterday in the death of a 49-year-old man who was struck on the head with a baseball bat. Christian J. Schellenschlager Jr., 16, was found the juvenile court's equivalent of guilty of voluntary manslaughter in the death of Brian Michael Myers, 49, in April. According to court testimony, Schellenschlager and other teens were playing with a wheelchair when Myers threw a beer bottle at them. Schellenschlager struck Myers once on the head with an aluminum baseball bat. Meyers fell into a coma from which he did not awake. Anne Arundel County Circuit Judge J. Michael Wachs ordered Schellenschlager to remain in the Turning Point facility in rural Clinton County, Mich., until his 21st birthday.
