The Baltimore Police Department has not yet announced any arrests after a mass shooting involving juveniles in south Baltimore.

Officers were dispatched to an area off Hollins Ferry Road in Mt. Winans around 9:45 pm July 19.

There, they found an 18-year-old male and a 21-year-old male with gunshot wounds. The 21-year-old victim was last listed in critical condition.

Moments later another 18-year-old male showed up at a Baltimore City Fire station on Annapolis Road. Investigators say he too had been shot and was seeking help.

According to the Department, three more victims, two 17-year-old males and a 19-year-old male later arrived to an area hospital with non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

The Baltimore Police Department confirmed six victims connected to the case.

Detectives and crime lab technicians were back at the neighborhood Monday.

Investigators were heavily focused on the Pierpont Street, which sits behind the convenience store off Hollins Ferry Road.

Bullet holes could be seen in at least one vehicle, and the sidewalk was still blood-stained.

FOX45 News reached out to Baltimore Police asking if they’ve determined a believed motive, if this was believed to have been an exchange of gunfire, and if they have any suspect information.

The Department has not yet responded.

Neighbors seemed shocked by the severity of the crime, especially involving juveniles.

“It’s surprising,” said Welton Lloyd, who said he’s lived in this area his entire life. “We didn’t have this, fights but not shootings like this.”

The investigation is on-going.
