Latest US mass shooting kills two, wounds dozens in Baltimore
Another US mass shooting in the northeastern city of Baltimore has killed at least two people and wounded dozens -- three critically – at an apartment block.
An 18-year-old female was pronounced dead at the scene and a 20-year-old male was pronounced dead after being taken to a local hospital, local police authorities declared Sunday.
According to police officials, three of those wounded were in critical condition with eight others transported from the scene to area hospitals. They further stated that 20 more shooting victims walked to other hospitals for treatment.
Baltimore police department said the ”mass-shooting incident” began in early hours of Sunday as hundreds of people were gathered in the area for an event called "Brooklyn Day," adding that witnesses reported hearing 20 to 30 shots fired.
Although shootings across the US are quite common due to its laws allowing the purchase and carrying guns, mass shootings and the use of machine guns have become a growing concern in the country.
US lawmakers, however, have done very little to enact laws to control the sale of arms and the growing gun violence.
