ANNAPOLIS, Md. — A man has been charged in connection to a Saturday evening shooting in Annapolis that left two children injured.

Police say they were called to the 100 block of Obery Court just before 7:20 p.m., for a possible home invasion.

Shortly after the initial call, police received multiple reports that two children had been shot.

A 14 year-old boy and a 10 year-old girl were later located in the unit block of Monument Street.

The 14-year-old is in stable condition, while the 10 year-old is in serious but stable condition.

John Estep, 41, of Annapolis, has turned himself into police.

He now faces seven criminal charges, including two counts of first degree assault.

Estep has since been released from custody on personal recognizance.

The circumstances leading up to the shooting are still under investigation.

Anyone with information should call detectives at 410-260-3439.
