Acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison called Thursday — his “most violent” day on the job in which four people were fatally shot and eight others were injured — “totally unacceptable.”

Five men were shot — one fatally — in a shooting in West Baltimore on Thursday evening, according to Baltimore Police. 

Standing before a crowd of more than 75 religious leaders at a meet-and-greet for clergy, acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison described his recent arrival in the city as a “calling” from God — and one for which his experience as a church elder in New Orleans prepared him well.

On his fifth night of community meetings, acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison told a crowd of several dozen people in west Baltimore he will change the culture of the department.

A convicted West Baltimore gang leader once dubbed the city’s “No.1 trigger puller” was sentenced to life in prison Friday.

Of the 362 Baltimore Police officers who participated in a recent survey, more than 40 percent said they don’t feel comfortable intervening in an incident and initiating arrests without a call for service.

Capping the end of his first day as acting Baltimore police commissioner, Michael Harrison met with members of the community Monday night in Northwest Baltimore.
