A manhunt is under way after two people were killed and 28 others wounded in a mass shooting at a neighbourhood street party in the city of Baltimore, the latest deadly incident of gun violence in the United States.
The attack took place just after 12:30am (04:30 GMT) on Sunday in the Brooklyn Homes area in the southern part of the city, Richard Worley, the Baltimore Police Department’s acting commissioner, told reporters at the scene.
The shooting took place as hundreds of people had gathered in the area for an event known as “Brooklyn Day”, featuring pony rides, dancing and refreshments.
No arrests were made immediately after the attack and Worley said police were looking for multiple suspects and to determine a motive for the shooting.
