Baltimore Riot

Baltimore's riotous streets have given way to calm. Police backed by 2,000 National Guardsmen restored order in the city. There were some minor skirmishes, but all in all an overnight curfew held. Police arrested two people for looting and one for disorderly conduct, but most of the 10 arrests made after the 10 p.m. curfew were for curfew violation. The city exploded on Monday after the funeral of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who mysteriously died on April 19, a week after Baltimore Police arrested him.

At a news conference a few moments ago, Shipley said the family had a beautiful day for Freddie, and it’s wrong to have it destroyed by this violence. “We want justice,” he said, but asks "is it just us?”

Challenging the police

Just moments ago, this car came flying up this block. I'm saying flying up this block, right into the face of the officers. Oddly, that emergency vehicle over there didn't move. It looked like he was going to ram right into the cops. Nobody fired at him. Nothing happened. I couldn't believe that they didn't move. He then did a U-turn and ripped down the block. And then a series of cars started coming down. I've never seen anything like that in one of these situations -- from CNN's Chris Cuomo.
