Gunfire in Baltimore that killed a man and injured two other adults Saturday night was part of a "mass casualty incident," the city's top police leader said.

One person was detained for questioning, and police were still trying to determine if the person would be designated as a suspect or victim, authorities said at a Saturday night news conference.

Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison described a chaotic scene in the city's Upton community, where ShotSpotter sensors alerted police to gunshots at 6:39 p.m.

He said it appeared that a shooter or possibly more than one armed suspect opened fire, striking a 43-year-old man standing outside, who was declared dead after arriving at a hospital, striking another man, 65, in an arm, and wounding a motorist in a moving vehicle nearby, Harrison said.

"We are here again with another mass casualty incident," he said.
