Police say a mass shooting in Baltimore injured six people, including a five-year-old

Six people were injured in a shooting Saturday night in Baltimore, Maryland, including a 5-year-old girl, police said.

At a news briefing, Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley stated that officers responded to a call about a shooting at Spaulding and Queensberry Avenues around 8:45 p.m.

Officers arrived at the scene and discovered six victims: four males and two females, including a 5-year-old girl who had been shot in the hand. Worley stated that the child’s injuries do not appear to be serious.

The young girl, as well as a 23-year-old woman and three men aged 32, 33 and 52, suffered non-life-threatening injuries, Worley said.

Another victim, a 38-year-old man, was listed in critical condition and underwent surgery at a hospital, the commissioner said.

Given the serious nature of the 38-year-old man’s condition, homicide detectives were dispatched to the scene.

According to Worley, people appeared to be hanging out outside when the gunman opened fire.

No one has been arrested in connection with the shooting. The incident is still under investigation.
