Baltimore Police are investigating after a man was killed and seven other people were injured by gunfire Sunday evening near a park in East Baltimore.
Officers responded around 8 p.m. to the 1300 block of Spring Street near Caroline & Hoffman Park where eight people were found shot ranging between 22 and 45 years old.
A 36-year-old man died and the conditions of the other people shot ranged from stable to critical condition. There is no update on their current conditions at this time.
“It is not lost on me the impact of an incident like this on our communities. In the days, weeks and even months ahead, we will be tasked with working with this community to heal from the trauma of this evening’s event,” said Baltimore City Chief Administrative Officer Faith Leach.
Police said there was a gathering on Spring Street where they believed multiple people fired shots; numerous guns were found at the scene.
“It’s a very expansive crime scene,” Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley said. “The detectives are out speaking with witnesses and residents working to identify any video we can find. What we do know is officers located multiple victims and multiple firearms.”
Anybody with information on the shooting can call police at 443-902-4824 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-66-7-LOCK-up.
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, who is in Chicago for the Democratic National Convention, released a statement saying, in part, “Baltimore is grappling with the impacts of another mass shooting event that has taken the life of one Baltimorean and irreparably changed several others. Investigators from the Baltimore Police Department will diligently work to find and hold those who are responsible accountable for this horrific act of violence.”
