and in recent (June 1, 2015) related news:

Baltimore shootings are up 82.5%, or nearly double from last year While homicides have jumped by 43%, the increase in non-fatal shootings is running at double that clip

Maryland has the fourth-toughest firearms laws in the nation, according to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
