Police remain at scene of Baltimore shooting that killed two and injured 28 A number of officers remain on the scene, hours after the shooting, working behind police tape amid densely packed two-story housing blocks.
Folding tables and plastic cups were seen scattered around the scene, apparently left behind when people ran from the gunshots.
Police tape cordons off the area of a mass shooting incident in the Southern District of Baltimore, Maryland (AP) The violence comes as federal prosecutors in Baltimore this week touted their efforts to reduce violent crime in the city.
Police have reported nearly 130 homicides and close to 300 shootings so far this year, though that’s down from the same time last year. Authorities have vowed to crack down aggressively on repeat violent offenders.

Baltimore mayor asks for public assistance in locating suspect, vows to fight gun violence Mayor Brandon Scott of Baltimore has asked the public for help locating the shooter who killed two and injured nearly thirty more during a mass shooting early Sunday.
Mr Scott said the suspect was still at large and asked anyone with information on the individual to come forward to Baltimore police.
“This investigation is ongoing, and we will not rest until the people responsible are held accountable. This tragedy again shows why we must continue to focus on the amount of illegal guns on our streets that make it into the hands of individuals who should not have them and continuously carry out violent acts in our city,” he wrote. “There must be accountability at each level of the illegal gun trade from those using them, those trafficking them to those who manufacture them in ways they know will lead to violence. I’m asking that anyone who has information on who committed this cowardly, violent act to come forward and help us secure justice for the Brooklyn community.”
