BALTIMORE, Md. — White Marsh Mall says they will not be hosting a carnival in 2019 due to concerns of safety.

White Marsh spokesperson Lindsay Kahn stated, "safety is priority."

This announcement comes after a recent series of brawls at the Eastpoint Mall carnival that resulted in the arrest of 26 juveniles.
