Two people have been killed and 28 others injured after a “mass shooting event” in Baltimore, police say.
The shooting, which took place in the Brooklyn Homes neighborhood in the southern district of the city left two people dead and 28 others with injuries — including three who remain in critical condition, according to the Baltimore Police Department.
Acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley explained that one woman was found dead on the scene when responding officers arrived after receiving numerous calls about a shooting just after 12:30 am. Nine people were transported by EMS to area hospitals. 20 others went to hospitals as walk-in patients as a result of the shooting.
“BPD is on scene of a [mass] shooting incident in the 800 blk of Gretna Court in our Southern District,” authorities said in a statement released on social media regarding the shooting. “Acting Commissioner Worley and PIO are on scene.”
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott said “we will not stop until we find those cowards who decided to just shoot dozens of people, causing people to lose their lives.”
Worley said Baltimore Police are working the “extensive” crime scene and asked for the public’s assistance, saying anyone who has information should call 911.
