-

 

Bill Ferguson, president of the Maryland Senate, spoke out after at least two people died and 28 others were injured in a shooting at a block party on Sunday.

 

Frustrated Baltimore officials pleaded on Sunday with residents to come forward with information about a shooting at a crowded neighborhood block party that left two people dead and 28 others wounded, many of them teenagers.

 

A motive for the shooting, which was reported at 12:30 a.m. in Baltimore’s southern neighborhood of Brooklyn, was unclear, but the authorities said there was more than one assailant. It was unclear whether the victims were targeted.

 

Officials said an 18-year-old woman, Aaliyah Gonzales, was dead at the scene of the shooting, which happened at Brooklyn Homes, a public housing complex. A 20-year-old man, Kylis Fagbemi, was later pronounced dead at a hospital, the police said.

 

The victims were between 13 and 32 years old, the city’s acting police commissioner, Col. Richard Worley, said at a news conference Sunday afternoon.
