Baltimore City Police Department

There are now four people in custody on charges related to the Brooklyn Day shooting that killed two and wounded 28 others in July.

“We are setting a path forward with the goal of ensuring every mistake outlined in these reports is never repeated,” said Mayor Brandon Scott.

CAO Faith Leach wrote in a summary that the reports revealed a “disconnect between Brooklyn Homes residents and the city government agencies that serve them.”

It was the third in-person town hall where residents had a chance to ask the commissioner questions before his nomination this fall. Some were concerned that Worley has been with the department through a time when police scandals led to a federal consent decree.

Tristan Brian Jackson was arrested and taken into custody on charges of attempted murder, conspiracy to attempt murder, and 41 related charges, say police.

One message was clear among dozens of the residents who braved the Monday night rain to meet Worley at a church in Park Heights: Baltimore needs a police force invested in its communities.

Interim Commissioner Richard Worley told councilmembers last month the report would take 45 days. The department says they will need more time.

Critical staffing shortages are preventing police from spending enough time getting to know the neighborhoods they patrol, a roadblock to regaining community trust, report finds.

July still saw a decrease in shootings, with numbers close to 2015.

“The families who are affected by crime and violence, that reduction does not matter to those families.”
