Baltimore Cops Release Video of Persons of Interest in HBCU Campus Shooting

Baltimore police have released surveillance footage asking for help identifying people who may have been involved in the this week’s mass shooting on the Morgan State University campus.

Four people were wounded in the shooting — four men and a woman — and all but one of them were students at the historically Black college. The victims were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, CrimeOnline reported.

The shooting took place just after the school’s homecoming week kickoff event. Classes were cancelled for the rest of the week, as well as some homecoming events — although the scheduled football game and homecoming gala have been postponed instead of canceled.

“We know that there was more than one person with a weapon. The problem is, the ballistics has to tell us how many guns were shot,” Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley said Wednesday morning, according to WBAL.

Worley said the shooters missed their intended target.

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

Anyone with information in reference to the identity of these individuals is urged to call detectives at 410-396-2444 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7Lockup.
