Baltimore Police Department has publicized surveillance footage of individuals of interest in the recent shooting at Morgan State University. The authorities are appealing for assistance in identifying the people in the video.
The shooting, which took place during the university’s homecoming week, seems to have been instigated by a disagreement between two smaller factions. Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley stated that an individual was specifically targeted by two armed persons, but none of the victims were the intended target.
Five individuals, aged between 18 and 22, including four students, sustained non-life-threatening injuries in the incident and have since received medical treatment. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott clarified that the shooting wasn’t racially driven.
The university took immediate security measures following the incident, implementing a shelter-in-place order, which was lifted later that night.
Morgan State University has suspended classes and homecoming events for the week until a suspect is pinpointed, as informed by the school’s president, David Wilson.
No arrests have been reported as of now. The police are urging anyone with relevant information to contact them at 410-396-2444 or, to remain anonymous, the Metro Crime Stoppers tip line at 1-866-7Lockup.
