The family of a 22-year-old Montgomery County honor student, and Baltimore police want to know how he ended up dying in the waters of Baltimore’s Inner Harbor.

Richard Sher reports around 2 a.m. Wednesday morning, Ankush Gupta, and several friends, stopped at Harbor Place on their way home from New York. They were tired. Some stayed in the car.

Ankush and at least two friends went to rest on a bench outside the Light Street Pavilion.

Ankush said he was taking a walk. Minutes later, according to Ankush’s sister Rajni, “His friends heard a scream and a splash and saw a white guy running very fast.”

“They went to look in the water and saw nothing and called police. Baltimore City Fire Department divers pulled Ankush’s body from the Inner Harbor about two hours later. This is being investigated as a suspicious death,” said Police Detective Nicole Monroe.
