Police said at least two people fired shots. Jackson pled guilty in March, to four charges including second-degree assault, use of a firearm in a crime of violence, conspiracy to commit first-degree assault, and a minor in possession of a firearm.
He was sentenced to 45 years in jail, with all but ten years suspended as part of a plea deal. Jackson will be eligible for parole after serving five years.
The state had sought a 50-year sentence suspended to 12 years.

Five juveniles were charged in connection with the shooting

On July 2, 2023, hundreds of people had gathered in that area in Baltimore city area for an event called ‘Brooklyn Day’. Dramatic footage showed the moment revelers fled the block party in the Maryland city during the early hours of the morning.
Surveillance footage acquired by the Baltimore Police Department featured dozens of people sprinting through the streets after shots were fired at 800 Gretna Court in the Brooklyn Homes neighborhood around 12.30am. 
Investigators said 14 teenage girls were also injured in the incident comprising of one 13-year-old, one 14-year-old, two girls aged 15, three aged 16, two aged 17, two 18, and three aged 19.

The mass shooting also left 28 people including 14 teenage girls and nine teenage boys. The young victims ranged in age from 13 to 19 years, the BPD said

Baltimore police added that nine teenage boys suffered injuries, including one 13-year-old, one 15-year-old, two aged 16, two 17, and three 18-year-olds.
Three adult females aged 20, 23, and 32 and two males aged 22 and 31 were also hurt in the shooting.
The gunmen fled the scene immediately after the shooting and an $8,000 reward was offered for information on their whereabouts. 
A damning post-mortem of law enforcement management of the occasion found that despite acts of heroism by individual officers, police had been slow responding to warnings that the event was getting out of hand. It revealed that the BPD knew about the block party days before it unfolded and observed the setting up but did not provide any extra patrols.
