A newborn baby is clinging to its life after an emergency delivery following a shooting in east Baltimore that killed its mother Thursday night.

Doctors performed an emergency delivery after a drive-by shooting that also killed a man, and Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said the baby is in “grave” condition due to the early delivery, according to CBS Baltimore.

The suspected shooter or shooters pulled up in a vehicle and fired on the victims’ car, which was parked, according to police. Harrison said police believe there were two suspects in the vehicle but had no other information to share.
