The shooting happened Sunday after a Fourth of July holiday weekend party, police said.
Police said an 18-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man were killed, and nine people were hospitalized, including several in critical condition.
"Among the injured are 14 victims under the age of 18," said Acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley.

A grand jury indicted six Baltimore police officers May 21 over the death of African-American Freddie Gray in their custody last month, a state attorney said.    

Numerous protesters were arrested for defying a curfew in Baltimore May 1 night, hours after six police were charged over the death of an African-American man who was in their custody.
  
The protesters struck a defiant chord with police, even after the six officers were charged earlier in the day over the death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray.
  

Protesters marched against police violence in cities from New York to Denver on April 29, and a large demonstration in Baltimore ended peacefully two days after rioting over the death of a black man injured in police custody. 

Rioters plunged part of Baltimore into chaos April 27, torching a pharmacy, setting police cars ablaze and throwing bricks at officers hours after thousands mourned the man who died from a severe spinal injury he suffered in police custody.
