Because we live in a gun-saturated country, there was another mass shooting. At least two people were killed, although I've seen reports stating that four were killed, and dozens were injured in a mass shooting in Baltimore early on Sunday, officials said.
An 18-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man were killed and 28 others wounded, totaling 30 people shot at a Baltimore block party.
CNN reports:
Nine people were transported from the scene to hospitals and 20 people walked into hospitals in the area. Three of the injured are in critical condition, according to a police statement.
The 18-year-old was pronounced dead on the scene and the 20-year-old was pronounced dead at a hospital, police said.
Twelve patients are being treated at the R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center at the University of Maryland Medical Center, and four patients are being treated at the medical center's pediatric emergency department, the University of Maryland Medical System spokesman Michael Schwartzberg said in an emailed statement.
Police received multiple calls after 12:30 a.m., and arrived to find one woman dead and another nine people suffering from gunshot wounds, according to Baltimore Police Acting Commissioner Richard Worley.
There is no information on suspects or a motive at this time, but investigators are "working an extensive crime scene," Worley said.
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott described the incident as a "reckless, cowardly act that happened here and that has permanently altered many lives and cost two people their lives."
The suspect/suspects are still at large:
The NRA released a statement: "If everyone at the block party had a gun, this never would have happened."
OK, I made that up, but that's been the NRA's attitude for years.
