BALTIMORE (AP) The Justice Department said Tuesday it has opened a civil
rights investigation into the death of Freddie Gray, a black man who
suffered a fatal spinal-cord injury under mysterious circumstances after
he was handcuffed and put in the back of a police van.
.
After the probe was announced, at least 1,000 people gathered at a
previously planned rally at the site of Gray's arrest. Protesters marched
to a police station a couple of blocks away, chanting and holding signs
that read "Black Lives Matter" and "No Justice, No Peace" slogans that
have come embody what demonstrators believe is widespread mistreatment of
blacks by police.
.
Pricilla Jackson carried a sign reading, "Convict Freddie's killers," that
listed the names of the six officers suspended with pay while local
authorities and the U.S. Justice Department investigate the death.
Jackson, who is black, said she wants Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake to
know that she and others have been brutalized by police.
.
"They're hurting us when they throw us to the ground and kick us and punch
us," said Jackson, 53.
.
At least one an activist was detained when he jumped past police barriers.
.
Gray's mother, Gloria Darden, was overcome with grief and carried away at
one point by several men, writhing and sobbing uncontrollably, her face
obscured by a hood and dark glasses. The crowd parted to let her through.
Another female family member collapsed in tears and was also helped away.
.
Gray, 25, was taken into custody April 12 after police "made eye contact"
with him and another man in an area known for drug activity, police said.
Gray was handcuffed and put in a transport van. At some point during his
roughly 30-minute ride, the van was stopped and Gray's legs were shackled
when an officer felt he was becoming "irate," police said.
.
Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said that Gray asked for an inhaler, and
then several times asked for medical care. He was eventually rushed to a
hospital.
