Baltimore shooting leaves 1 dead, 5 in serious condition

One person was killed and five are in serious condition after a shooting in Baltimore Wednesday.

According to the Baltimore Sun, the shooting occurred around 2:25 p.m. An officer nearby called for an ambulance and two people were taken to a hospital. Around the same time, another four people walked themselves to the hospital and reported gunshot wounds. One of the victims was pronounced dead sometime after. One of the victims reportedly suffered multiple gunshot wounds.

Police believe two of three suspects approached the group and opened fire.

Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison called the incident “a very brazen, very cowardly act of shooting indiscriminately into a block, where they hit six people and could have potentially hit and killed many others.”

No other suspect information or motive was released by the police, but some reports claim two suspects fled in a burgundy Acura.
