Another black man has been shot in Baltimore(who knows what happened now?) [View all]

@greta:
young black male shot in Baltimore by police witnessed by Fox crew

@cmcampbell6:
Commander at the scene confirms it was a shooting. Man had a gun, police tried to arrest him, it fell and went off, he says.

It fell?
Several tweets about this. Riot police and gawd are there.
If true, what a hot mess.

Unconfirmed:
@ssdance: Fox News is saying police shot someone in the back at North/Penn.

Lawd help if this is true!
