Our priorities right now is officer safety and the safety of the community. Thank you. Council president. Good evening. Im deeply saddened by whats taking place in the great city of baltimore. This reminds me of 1968 when the riots took place through the assassination of dr. Martin luther king where people were destroying their own stores and properties in their own community. This is unacceptable. This is not what freddie grays family wanted. They asked there be no protests marches, or anything of that nature today. The organizers of those marches are not participating in whats taking place today. As the mayor has stated these are thugs who are seizing upon an opportunity to s
From baltimore. If you would, were looking at pictures but take your time and describe the situation at the moment there in baltimore. Reporter good evening, tony. The worst of the rioting taking place at the moment is happening just 1. 5 miles away from downtown baltimore. And the story of the day, if youre just getting from work is is that around about 2 00 this afternoon, the university of baltimore, maryland let its staff and students know they were concerned there may be violence in the area and they should go home. That was the first indication that we have that something may be up. Later on at least two high schools emptied out, and the students went to the nearby shopping Shopping Mall thats a big one. There they were met by police in riot gear and the situation deteriorated rapidly. And i think what happened was these students that went out to protest all the events surrounding freddie grays death. Throughout the last two weeks the police have been in ordinary uniforms with or
Pressurization. There can be a slow leak. There can be other leaks. Typically, it could be leaks around doors and cargo and things like that. Typically its a valve. What happens is these valves fail. When they fail it can be a rapid decompression, or it can be a slow leak. In this case it had to be a rapid decompression for the pilots to respond as they did. Everyone was very fortunate the pilots were able to get on their oxygen masks, were able to descend, and hopefully the passengers got their masks on as well. As were going to talk to jean in a second again, going from 38,000 feet to 10,000 feet in three minutes. What does that feel like for these 75 passengers . Its like a roller coaster dive because that exceeds the recommended descent level for the plane. Thats not to say the pilots did anything wrong. In fact thats exactly what they needed to do. If theyre at 38,000 feet and had a rapid decompression, other than being higher thats the worst possible situation because youve got t
Here it is, the front page of Baltimore Sun including your byline. The question i wanted to ask, were you as floored by the rest of the country about those charges having been brought yesterday . Absolutely. Everything about yesterdays announcement was surprising. Theres become an expectation that these kinds of cases take months, very deliberately gather the evidence and can take up to three months. The Police Department has set an aggressive timetable, two weeks. Some said it was an artificial timetable, that some of the even the preliminary work wouldnt be done by this if states attorney herself said im not going to be bound by the police timetable. And yet on the same day that police said they were going to wrap their investigation, she announced charges against all six officers which in and of itself is something we have not seen before in these type of cases. She did not allege that this was a deliberate rough ride. Theres still a lot unknown about what the allegations are. I fee
