BALTIMORE (AP) β€” One person was killed and six others were injured when two people drove up to a group on a corner in northwest Baltimore and began firing at them Wednesday afternoon, police said.

A silver Lexus pulled into the intersection of Park Heights and Shirley avenues around 12:30 p.m. and fired at a group of people sitting and standing on the corner, Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said at a news conference. The shooters then got back in the car and drove away, he said.

β€œThe brazenness of these offenders to pull up, get out of a car and then open fire on a group of people minding their own business is unconscionable,” Harrison said.

If only Baltimore had sensible, reasonable gun control.

“...then open fire on a group of people minding their own business..”

Minding their own business biding their time until some hapless victim tried to walk by.

“open fire on a group of people minding their own business”

Umm, if you are sitting on a corner in North Baltimore, you are not “minding your own business”, you are “open for business”. The drug business, that is.

That's 12:30 PM, not AM.

It's not a crime when it happens in broad daylight - it's an accepted practice of city hall.

Maryland was smacked down by SCOTUS a few weeks ago and now is Shall Issue.

Training classes are full. The guy I took mine from has stopped all of his other sessions to concentrate on CCW.

Lesson: Avoid being in a group on a corner (not just in Baltimore, but any “blue” city).
