Alexa Ashwell hosts Maryland's Most Wanted, a crime segment featuring some of the most violent fugitives in Baltimore and the DMV. Alexa also serves as a crime and court reporter.
A native of Maryland, Baltimore is Alexa’s home city.
Since joining FOX Baltimore, Alexa has covered major cases including the ‘Brooklyn Day’ mass shooting; the largest shooting in the City’s history with at least 30 victims, the controversial death of Baltimore Police Detective Sean Suiter just days before he was scheduled to testify against members of BPD’s disgraced Gun Trace Task Force, the federal corruption case against former Mayor Catherine Pugh, and the ‘Panhandler Hoax,’ a Baltimore man’s elaborate scheme to cover up his wife’s murder.
Prior to Baltimore, Alexa worked for WSOC-TV/Cox Media Group in Charlotte, North Carolina, as well as for television stations in Ohio and West Virginia.
Alexa was a Division II athlete, competing on the collegiate level in both softball and soccer. It was her love of sports that led her to a career in broadcast journalism.
