ALTIMORE (AP) — Multiple people were shot at Morgan State University in Baltimore on Tuesday, police said.

The Baltimore Police Department said officers were on the scene for an “active shooter situation” on the campus of the historically Black university. The address given for the shooting appeared to match a residential building.

“We’re asking everyone to shelter in place and avoid the area,” police said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

Police spokesman Vernon Davis told the Baltimore Banner that at least four people were shot. Their conditions weren't immediately known.

Police spokesperson Amanda Krotki also said “multiple victims” were shot.

Unbelievable!

Thanks.  Certainly wasn’t expecting a story like this at this hour from my nearby “hometown”.  Even with a black (no capital) college.

But, because of all that, I suspect this is just another thug shooting.  They just don’t care about firing into crowds or are very poor at targeting, so this happens.  I doubt it’s a true “mass assault”.

So basically it's a typical Tuesday night in Baltimore.

5 wounded as mass shooting at Morgan State University prompts hourslong shelter-in-place during homecoming week

Four students and another person were wounded when gunfire erupted outside a crowded homecoming event at Morgan State University in Baltimore, police said, sending students on a dash for cover and a SWAT team into a dorm to hunt for suspects as the nation’s gun violence epidemic struck yet another American campus.

Hours after the Tuesday evening attack, police no longer believed it was an active shooter situation, though they hadn’t found any suspects and are still investigating, Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley said in a news briefing. There was no suspect description by early Wednesday.

There was more than one person with a weapon at the scene of the shooting, though investigators are still analyzing the ballistics to determine how many weapons were fired, Worley said.

The shooting likely stemmed from a dispute between two small groups, he said.

“One individual was a target of two individuals who had weapons. We don’t believe that individual was hit,” Worley said. “We believe the five victims who were struck were unintended targets.”

Though this may have changed more recently, the reports I've seen state that no info about suspects has been released. That could be a dog not barking - authorities might know significantly more, but have some motive for not releasing what they know.

Called it.

Love the “epidemic of GUN violence”.  It’s an epidemic of violence, the coarsening of culture, you commie jackasses.  But keep blaming a weapon, and inanimate object.
