BALTIMORE – Baltimore police say four people have been shot, three fatally, near the University of Maryland, Baltimore, campus.

Detective Rashawn Strong said in a statement early Wednesday that officers responded Tuesday night to a shooting reported in a residential neighbourhood blocks from the campus near downtown.

Strong says officers found three people with gunshot wounds. One man was pronounced dead and another man and a woman were taken to a hospital, where they died.

Strong says another woman who walked into a hospital with a gunshot wound is listed in stable condition.

A statement on the school’s website says campus police reported that two gunmen in two vans fired into a group of people.

A spokesman for the university focused on graduate and professional education says there’s no indication students were involved.
