(Baltimore, MD) -- A Baltimore man has been found guilty in the 2023 mass shooting at Morgan State University during homecoming week that left five people injured.
Morgan State postponed all remaining homecoming events following the shooting and has increased campus security ever since.
The jury found Marquis Brown guilty of five counts of attempted second-degree murder and related offenses. He faces 259 years of incarceration.
“Our office remains committed to seeking justice for the victims, their families, and the Morgan community. We look forward to presenting our case at sentencing and advocating for the maximum penalty, so this defendant is held fully accountable for the harm and trauma he caused through his violent actions, " said State’s Attorney Ivan Bates.
Brown's sentencing is tentatively set for August 12th.
