The National Desk, Newsweek and the Daily Mail reported, citing authorities, that a 3-year-old boy was among the victims. Cleveland.com and PennLive described the youngest victim as a 4-year-old girl.
The gunmen are still being hunted. Baltimore's police commissioner called them "cowards," and city officials asked the public to help identify them.
