GREENBELT, Md. (AP) — Five young men were shot Friday afternoon when gunfire broke out in a park in Greenbelt, a Maryland suburb of Washington, D.C., according to police.
The victims were hospitalized but their conditions were not immediately available, the Greenbelt Police Department said in a social media post. Officials also didn’t provide their exact ages.
