Baltimore: Morgan State University Shooting Leaves Four Wounded
A police cordon surrounds the scene of a house fire in Sycamore Lane, Stafford, which claimed the lives of four children yesterday, on February 06, 2019 in Stafford, England. Police have named the four children who died as Keegan Unitt, aged 6, Tilly Unitt, 4, Olly Unitt, 3, and their older brother Riley Holt, 8.
According to The Guardian's latest report, the Baltimore Police Department said that their officers were on the scene of an "active shooter situation."
This means that suspects were trying to harm people despite the police being near their location.
"BPD is on the scene of an active shooter situation in the 1700 block of Argonne Drive. We're asking everyone to shelter in place and avoid the area," said the BPD via its official X post.
Three hours after the announcement, BPD officials confirmed that the incident was no longer an active shooter situation. They added that more details are expected to be provided once a media briefing happens.
Vernon Davis, BPD's spokesperson, said that at least four individuals were shot. Luckily, Amanda Krotki, another BPD spokeswoman, said that victims had non-life-threatening injuries.
Ryan Dorsey, a city council member, said that there are an estimated three shooters behind the Morgan State University shooting incident in Baltimore.
As of writing, their identities are still unknown and no arrests have been made so far. This means that the suspects are still at large.
