Man dead, 2 wounded in shooting at Southwest Baltimore shopping center

One man was killed, and two others were wounded in a shooting at a shopping center in Southwest Baltimore Thursday night, according to police.

Officers were called to the Hollinswood Park shopping center on West Patapsco Avenue around 9:30 p.m. and found the three men shot.

One was pronounced dead at the scene. His name has not been released.

The other two men, ages 24 and 38, were rushed to the hospital, police said. 

On Friday afternoon, police told WJZ the two wounded men are now in stable condition. 

There have been no arrests. 

A forensics team spent the night gathering evidence in the parking lot, and patrol vehicles were seen Friday morning scattered throughout the shopping center.

Shoppers react to triple shooting 

Kaiyah Johnson said it's normal for her to shop or pick up a slice of pizza at the Hollingswood Park Shopping Center. 

"I'm usually at that market or at Little Caesars. I come to Subway quite a bit, so I'm here all the time," Johnson said. 

She was shocked seeing multiple police vehicles lingering on Friday morning and learning of the deadly triple shooting that happened the night before. 

"I didn't even hear about it until just now. So that's just blowing my mind," Johnson told WJZ. "That's unusual for around here." 

Other shoppers did not want to show their faces on camera, but told WJZ how a shooting like this is out of the ordinary for a shopping center where they bring their families often. 

"I never had a problem. You know, I come here, me personally. I feel safe. I bring my kids here, like I said, I come get my nails done," Khayah told WJZ. "We as a community just have to do better and put the guns down." 

"I'm a mother, and I just can't even imagine. My heart goes out to the families," she added.
