Gunman shoots six people, kills two in Baltimore shooting believed to be retaliation
A gunman killed two men, left a third fighting for his life and shot three other people in northwest Baltimore on Wednesday night, police said.
The as-yet-unidentified man opened fire on a group outside a convenience store near Duvall Ave. and Garrison Blvd. around 6 p.m., according to Baltimore city police spokesman T.J. Smith. Police were searching Wednesday night for a gunman described as a black male who ran away following the shooting, Smith said.

"Right now, we are looking for any and all information that we could possibly get that helps us track down who this killer is," Smith said at a news conference at the scene. Investigators believe the shooting came in retaliation to a murder in the area within the last several days.

One of the shooting victims, a man, was critically wounded, Smith said. A women and two other men suffered non-life threatening wounds in the shooting, according to police.
