It's pinned as one of the City's most wicked crimes.
"It turns my stomach, to know people even think like that," said one East Baltimore resident. "It's terrible, it's a sad situation."
A firebombing led police to 26-year-old Antonio Wright. He turned himself in after being declared Baltimore's most wanted man.
The call came in early Saturday morning for flames shooting out of a home along Greenmount Avenue. Police say surveillance video shows Wright tossing Molotov cocktails into the home, killing 19-year-Shiheem Sholto and 17-year-old Tyrone James.
The new charging documents paint a chilling picture of what happened Saturday morning, saying all eight victims inside were asleep when the fire broke out.
Documents states witnesses were quick to talk, they identified Wright as the suspect, a.k.a "T-Low."
"People are fed up with some of levels violence we're seeing," said Baltimore Police spokesman T. J. Smith.
Fire investigators were back on scene Tuesday inside the home.
A working smoke detector was found but flames were too intense for all eight victims to survive. Police say there's no signs of the incident being gang related, but call it an act of retaliation.
Tuesday, a vigil was held for 17-year-old James.
"It's devastating, you know I just never through I'd be burying a child, I figured they'd be burying me so it's out of order and it hurts," said James' father.
"I wish this pain on nobody." James' sister said.
"This crime of course, was something that just shocked the conscious of anyone," Smith said.
Wright faces 37 criminal counts, a slew of charges, including first- and second-degree murder.
A woman claiming to be his wife posted on Facebook that he's innocent. WJZ has tried reaching out to her but has yet to hear back.
A 20-year-old woman who was injured in the fire remains hospitalized in critical condition.
