BALTIMORE — A teenager was arrested Friday morning in connection with Sunday’s mass shooting in Baltimore’s Brooklyn neighborhood that left 30 people shot, two fatally.
Baltimore Police said detectives believe the 17-year-old was “involved” in the mass shooting and, on social media, refer to him as a “person of interest.” But the teen is not charged with shooting anyone and authorities have not said if they believe he did. The teen’s defense attorney said his client was wounded in the gunfire.
The police department said the teen is being charged with possession of a firearm by a minor, assault weapon possession, reckless endangerment and having a handgun in a vehicle. He was arrested following a search warrant on a home, the agency said.
