Update: Both police officers were released from Maryland Shock Trauma Center this afternoon.
A day after two Baltimore police officers were shot on a traffic stop on McElderry Street, nothing but anger (and new word of another shooting Sunday night of a pregnant woman in West Baltimore's Sandtown-Winchester neighborhood):
Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld: He calls the gunman, who was shot and killed, an "idiot" and says: "These guys are walking and riding around the streets of Baltimore armed. They pose an incredible danger to all of us. ... the adjectives can't be harsh enough. And the penalties can't be harsh enough."
Police union chief Robert Cherry: "If they are willing to use [gun] against three armed police officers, what is going to stop them from using it on someone else?"
Ernest Smith, president of the McElderry Park Community Association: "We've been working toward changing the mind-set and changing the community. As these things, these numbers go up again, it's a concern. It's quite discouraging."
