Baltimore prosecutor ties D.C. crime to Morgan State shooting
Baltimore’s top prosecutor on Friday blamed the District’s crime for this month’s shooting at Morgan State University after a teenage boy was arrested in connection to the incident.
Baltimore police said Thursday they arrested and charged a 17-year-old boy from the District with multiple counts of attempted murder for the Oct. 3 shooting that injured five people.
Authorities are searching for a second suspect, 18-year-old Jovan Williams.
The D.C. teen is wanted on separate federal gun charges in the nation’s capital for his alleged role as part of the Kennedy Street Crew. Twelve members of the gang were arrested in June and accused of running an open-air drug market on multiple blocks in Kennedy Street NW.
Police said Mr. Williams should be considered armed and dangerous.
