This weekend, amid a warm winter weather stretch for Baltimore, 15 people were shot and five of those victims died, leaving residents in shock about deadly gun crime and angry at the city’s leadership. “We want a life plan,” a group of residents shouted Sunday as they held protest signs showing the city’s homicide counts for previous years, reported FOX News. The phrase was a play on the much-touted crime plan that Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison unveiled last year as a blueprint to fight crime and reform the police department. Harrison’s five-year crime-fighting plan includes the goals of responding calls for police within 10 minutes and increasing the number of police officers. Harrison said detectives have been working to identify suspects of the weekend shootings, and the department has redeployed officers and #SWAT and #K9 units to the affected areas.

Firefighters have found the body of a second victim following a massive explosion and fire at a chemical factory in northeastern Spain, Reuters reports. The explosion in Tarragona a day earlier left another eight injured, rescue officials said, and the fire continued to burn on Wednesday.

Donald Trump took a victory lap on Wednesday, telling a White Huose audience of dignitaries that a new trade deal with China will bring 'a future of fair and reciprocal trade.' The president has long complained about a massive trade deficit between Washington and Beijing. He pledged during the 2016 campaign to come down hard on China. 'We are righting the wrongs of the past,' he said Wednesday, observing that 'our negotiations were tough, honest, open and respectful.' Trump was not accompanied by Chinese President Xi Jinping, who sent Vice Premier Liu He in his place. Xi's absence left some with the impression that Washington wants the deal more than Beijing does. The president announced that he will 'be going back to China in the not-too-distant future to reciprocate,' but it's unclear what he would be reciprocating for. Vice President Mike Pence said the deal would guarantee $40-50 billion in Chinese purchases of American agriculture products.
