Mayor, police commissioner frustrated after weekend shootings rip through Baltimore
After a weekend where three people were shot and killed and another 18 were injured, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott and Police Commissioner Michael Harrison called on would-be shooters to quit being immature cowards. City officials’ frustration comes after a 10-day span where there were 17 homicides and 42 shootings resulting in injury. Put another way, roughly a tenth of the city’s killings and shootings this year have happened since June 17.
