[ cheering and applause ] im going to caution everybody that this is the beginning of a process. Theres a lot of mixed emotions. Reporter baltimores mayor stephanie rawlingsblake. I was sickened and heartbroken by the statement of charges that we heard today. Reporter blake called for reform in the police department. The manner of death deemed a homicide by the maryland state medical examiner is believed to be the result of a fatal injury that occurred while mr. Gray was unrestrained by a seatbelt in the custody of the Baltimore Police department wagon. Reporter charges filed by mosby against six Baltimore Police officers involved in the arrest of freddie gray april 12th were sweeping from 2nd degree murder and manslaughter to misconduct in office. Mosby described how gray cried out for medics but was repeatedly refused treatment at every step of his 40 minute journey in a Police Transport wagon. She described how in handcuffs and shackles gray was loaded head first on his stomach into the wagon not belted in in violation of policy so that his body could slide uncontrolled on the floor head first into the steel walls of the vehicle. Nor did they render or request medical assistance. Reporter medics werent called until a final stop at a police station. To the people of baltimore and demonstrators across america, i heard your call for no justice no peace. Your peace is sincerely needed as i work to deliver justice on behalf of this young man. Reporter right now the protests and demonstrations we are witnessing in baltimore are entirely peaceful. Five of the six officers are already in custody and being processed. The demonstrations are expected to continue both tonight into tomorrow and sunday, large demonstrations, this as baltimore despite the lifting of the mood remains under a state of emergency. There are Still National guard troops deployed and there will be a curfew tonight imposed again at 10 00. Reporting live at the War Memorial Plaza in Baltimore Scott broom, wusa9. News of those charges was a big surprise in west baltimore on the streets where freddie gray grew up. Within minutes people were gathering, honking, some cheering. Bruce leshan is live at north and penn where there is celebration and also a lot of sadness there, bruce. Reporter that is right. There is celebration here at penn and north. People have been dancing, longing, chanting, just generally having a blast down here, but there is also sadness in some of the neighborhoods around here. The looting over the past week has taken a toll, so there really is a complicated mix here of both hope and despair. Everything is gone. Everything is destroyed and were not coming back any time soon. Reporter myesha mccoys voice catches as she talks about her broken dream. She came become to west baltimore, built a pharmacy in a neighborhood desperate for jobs where one of every three homes is abandoned and boarded up only to see her pharmacy looted twice in the last week. What am i supposed to do for my medication . If you could hear the messages im getting from my customers saying please dont give up on us. We still need you. It brings tears to my eyes. We want justice reporter but there is celebration up the street at north and penn. After all the controversial deaths of Young African american men at the hands of Police Officers around the country, there is a feeling that this time there may be justice coming. I feel like in america its great and well see change. Reporter the death of freddie gray has made for strange allies. Crips and bloods and black guerrilla family gang members all walking arm in arm. You have to fall under. When i see these men, i was freddie gray. I was one of the young men involved when they talked about the wire. People could look at me and who was crazy ted, but now im dr. Ted. This brother is my brother. Hes not a thug. Reporter of course, the filing of these charges is just the first step and there is already concern here about what happens if at the end of a trial a jury finds these officers not guilty. Reporting live in baltimore bruce leshan, wusa9. That curfew does remain in effect in baltimore. There are plenty of officers and National Guard on hand there. We will keep an eye on what happens when 10 00 rolls around tonight, but at this point, the mood has eased considerably there in the city. As you can see, of course, protesters and everybody back in the streets this evening. The march from the States Attorneys Office to city hall was peaceful and most showed support for the decision to charge the officers. We believe what the states attorney did was very important to our community to bring justice to the situation that we are facing right now. So i believe that its very important that we continue in this path. Weve been reporting there are more protests planned for saturday and sunday and organizers say they are expected to be peaceful. The family of freddie gray says they are satisfied with the charges brought against those six Baltimore Police officers this morning. The family did hold a press conference at the Reginald Lewis museum in baltimore about an hour ago. The familys attorney billy murphy said the family was shocked when it learned about the charges and it wants to make sure the case is reviewed thoroughly and there is no rush to justice. Freddie grays stepfather added he believed the charges were an important step towards getting justice for his son. These charges are an important step in getting justice for freddie. And we ask that whoever comes to our city, a city that we love, a city that we live in, come in peace. We were in shock. And it was a good shock. Murphy also said at this point the family has confidence in the cases prosecutors. Baltimore fraternal order of police says the six officers charged in the case did nothing wrong and it is calling a decision by prosecutors to charge those officers a rush to judgment. Were disappointed in the apparent rush to judgment given the fact the investigation into this matter has not been concluded. Our officers like every other american citizen are entitled to due process. These officers did nothing wrong. As all of the facts surrounding this case come out in the appropriate forum, the officers lack of wrongdoing will be made abundantly clear. The fraternal order of police says it has and were quoting here grave concerns about the fairness and integrity of the prosecution of those six officers. Heres a recap of todays events. Earlier today baltimores top prosecutor declared freddie grays death a homicide and his arrest illegal. All six officers have been charges. The fraternal order of police calls the charges an egregious rush to judgment and a short while ago his father said the family was satisfied with the charges in grays death and at 6 00 well have a special report profiling the Baltimore States attorney marilyn mosby.

Well come back, talk about the weekend and a new streak well start over the weekend. Heres another live look at the crowd gathering and marching in the streets of baltimore following the news that the six officers involved in the death of freddie gray have the august 2013 shooting death of john geer is perhaps the most prominent case involving deadly force by Fairfax County police. In the past nine years three unarmed residents have been shot and killed by officers patrolling the streets there. As peggy fox reports, none of the officers involved have faced charges yet. Reporter youve probably heard the name john geer. In life he had no connection to sal kalosi or david masters, but in death the three middle aged Fairfax County men are linked by how they died, each fatally shot by a Fairfax CountyPolice Officer. 52yearold david masters, an army veteran, shot and killed by a Fairfax CountyPolice Officer november 13th , 2009. He was in his own truck with four puppies stopped at a traffic light on route 1. His father says his son never got justice. He was apparently on his way to leave flowers at a cemetery veterans day. He was shot in the back by a Police Officer. Reporter in 2006 sal palosi also unarmed was shot by a Fairfax CountyPolice Officer and john geer stood in his doorway unarmed with his hands up when Police Officer adam torres fired the fatal shot. A grand jury will convene this summer to decide whether to indict torres, but in the other two cases neither officer was charged. Mike curtis, an advocate for police accountability, says a citizens review board is needed. Who is watching them as they investigate themselves. So when they come to a criminal charge, officer misconduct, that needs to be looked at a different set of eyes than those that work with them. Reporter there is Police Dashcam video of the masters shooting. Were told it doesnt show the shooting, but wed like to know what you can hear. On monday fairfax Commonwealth Attorney ray murrow said he had no problems with that video being released, but Fairfax County police have yet to do so. Peggy fox, wusa9.
