Baltimore waits for answers on black man's death in police custody-Reuters By Scott Malone and Ian Simpson-APR 30,15-YAHOONEWS

BALTIMORE (Reuters) - Residents of Baltimore and activists across the United States waited on Thursday for official word on the cause of a black man's death in police custody earlier this month, as protests over the case spread to other cities.More than 100 people were arrested in New York overnight on Wednesday during protests against police violence, while Baltimore saw a largely peaceful night as a curfew held after rioting over the death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray.Thousands of National Guard troops and police remained in the mostly black city of Baltimore on Thursday morning to maintain order and enforce a 10:00 p.m. curfew set after unrest on Monday saw buildings and cars burned, stores looted and 20 officers hurt.Cities across the country also held demonstrations on Wednesday as part of a movement against racial profiling and police use of lethal force sparked by the deaths of African-American men in Cleveland; Ferguson, Missouri; New York and elsewhere over the past year.Baltimore officials tried to tamp down expectations that there would be a quick answer on the fate of the six police officers involved in the arrest that preceded Gray's death.While police plan to turn their report on the incident over to the Baltimore County prosecutor on Friday, they cautioned that it would not immediately be made public."We are confident that our state's attorney is going to do what needs to be done," said State Senator Catherine Pugh, who has been a frequent presence on Baltimore's streets the last two nights, referring to Marilyn Mosby, state's attorney for the county."We have to give her time and give her office time to wade through the papers they will receive," Pugh said.New York City police said early on Thursday they arrested more than 100 people, mostly for disorderly conduct, as protesters weaved in separate groups through Manhattan and blocked traffic in a few areas.The demonstrations from Union Square to Times Square and elsewhere, were reminiscent of protests in December after a grand jury decided against charges in the case of Eric Garner, an unarmed black man who died after a police officer put him in a chokehold.Smaller protests were held in Boston, Houston, Ferguson, Washington, D.C., and Seattle, and a handful of demonstrators were arrested in Denver on Wednesday.

STILL WAITING

Gray was arrested on April 12 after running from nearby police. He was transported to a police station in a van, with no seat restraint, and suffered a spinal injury that led to his death a week later.A lawyer for Gray's family says his spine was 80 percent severed at the neck while in custody.Six officers have been suspended, and the U.S. Justice Department is investigating the incident for possible civil rights violations.The Washington Post reported on Wednesday night that a prisoner who was in the same van as Gray, but who could not see him, heard him banging against the walls and believed he was intentionally trying to injure himself. The newspaper cited a document written by a police investigator.Police have arrested close to 270 people since Monday's violence, 18 of them on Wednesday. Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said more than 100 people had been released without being charged, because officials could not keep up with the paperwork, but he said charges would be brought later.The unrest in Baltimore prompted national figures - from the new U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton - to vow to work on improving law enforcement and criminal justice in minority communities nationwide.The Baltimore neighborhood that saw the worst of Monday's violence was already filled with burned-out buildings and vacant lots that had not been rebuilt since the 1968 riots that followed the assassination of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.(Writing by Curtis Skinner; Editing by Bernadette Baum)

Experts question gang involvement in riots-City Council news conference on Freddie Gray
Self-described gang members stand with members of the Baltimore City Council to condemn rioting. -By Doug Donovan, Mark Puente and Luke Broadwater The Baltimore Sun.


Baltimore leaders appeal to gangs to help stop violent protests.

It was an unusual tableau: Baltimore City Council President Bernard C. "Jack" Young and his neatly dressed council colleagues stood at a City Hall news conference flanked by two young men wearing the red bandannas associated with the Bloods gang.Charles Shelley, a member of the Crips gang, along with a Bloods member named Jamal, called for protesters in the streets of Baltimore to stop rioting.At Tuesday's event, Young praised the gang members — and discounted a police report that the Bloods, Crips and Black Guerrilla Family gangs had unified to target officers in the wake of Freddie Gray's recent death in police custody. He said it was "clear that the notion they were planning on harming our police officers is false and simply deterred the resources we needed to focus on the individuals who instigated these riots. I applaud these young men for standing here and speaking out for our city."Although some city and religious leaders say such gang outreach is essential in a crisis, criminologists have been shocked to see the leaders supporting groups often associated with a drug trade that helps to make Baltimore one of the nation's most violent cities.While those criminologists also doubted the claim of police officials that gangs were targeting officers, they said the alert was no excuse for religious and elected officials to lend the legitimacy of their institutions to criminal groups."You're a de facto gang-controlled city if you give them any power," said George W. Knox, director of the Chicago-based National Gang Crime Research Institute. "They are not part of the solution. They are part of the problem."City officials should be meeting publicly with teachers, mothers, crime victims, ministers and other community leaders — not gang members, Knox said. "You embolden them when you recognize them. It gives them power and status. You are creating a bigger monster."Officials of the local police union had no comment on the issue; Mayor Stephanie-Rawlings did not respond to a request for comment.Tuesday's news conference came about 12 hours after Young joined more than 75 religious leaders at New Shiloh Baptist Church to deliver a similar message about gang members, while imploring Baltimore residents to stop rioting over Gray's death.The Rev. William C. Calhoun, pastor of Trinity Baptist Church, and other church leaders said gang members can be instrumental in reaching the youths seen looting and rioting. Calhoun and other ministers ran into gang members by chance on Monday night when the religious leaders marched from New Shiloh to North Avenue, where chaos still engulfed the street.Both sides quickly realized that they were braving the violence to accomplish the same thing: restoring peace. And so the ministers — still dressed in their suits from Gray's funeral at New Shiloh — and the tattooed and T-shirt-clad gang members walked back to the church to talk.Calhoun said the meeting was very productive. "We asked questions of each other. How can we quell the violence? We didn't come to do any blame game. We came to share and listen and to pray."The Rev. Gregory V. Perkins, pastor of Historic St. Paul Community Baptist Church, said he supported the effort because gang members "have their ears to the ground on the street and can be used to bring about solutions."He disagreed that such meetings give gangs legitimacy. "Simply because the [City] Council meets with gang members in no way indicates that they're legitimizing gang activity," he said.This wouldn't be the first time that city officials had turned to criminals to help halt violence.Jeffrey Ian Ross, a criminologist at the University of Baltimore, said that during Baltimore's 1968 riots, drug kingpin Melvin "Little Melvin" Williams was credited with dispersing rioters.The Baltimore Sun reported in 2000 that Williams had stood up at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Mosher Street — not far from the current rioting — and with a microphone declared, "It's all over. Go home." The streets emptied shortly after."He wasn't a gang leader, but he was influential in Baltimore's underworld," Ross said. "Any solutions to quelling the violence and to restoring a sense of normalcy and to building a better city will require the participation of blocs of power players. And gangs are one of them."Councilman Nick Mosby, who represents the West Baltimore neighborhood where Gray was arrested, said the 13 council members stood with Young on Tuesday to show solidarity about the need to stop the rioting. He added that it was good to conduct outreach with the gang members.Former Mayor Sheila Dixon said gang members are a "segment of our community" that has "a voice that no one is listening to.""I believe they could be of help," said Dixon, who once represented Gray's neighborhoods as a councilwoman. "They can influence some of those young people" who are looting.At the council news conference and the New Shiloh gathering, some participants alleged that the Police Department falsely accused gangs on Monday of conspiring to target police officers."That was a false alarm cooked up to divide this city even further," said William "Billy" Murphy, the attorney for Gray's family. He and Gray's relatives joined the meeting at New Shiloh to call for peace. Ministers and gang members in attendance — including Young — all nodded in agreement when Murphy said police lied about the "credible threat" about gangs targeting police.

Police Commissioner Anthony W. Batts said Tuesday that the threat was credible."We have verified it," Batts said. "We did not issue it to divide the community."However, ministers and council members disagreed."We discovered tonight that [gang members are] not the problem," said the Rev. Errol Gilliard Sr., pastor of Greater Harvest Baptist Church. "Most of the looting was done by sick children."Charles Shelly, who called himself a Crips gang member, said at Monday night's New Shiloh meeting that the police advisory made no sense."It's false, absolutely false. If that was the case, why wouldn't we do it today? We were on their side today."He said gang members do not condone looting and rioting — and actually tried to help quell outbursts on North Avenue. But he said the rioting shows that black residents are tired of mistreatment from police, such as "officers rolling up with their guns drawn" when they encounter groups of men on the streets.Standing next to a young man who said he was a member of the rival Bloods gang, Shelly said, "You got a Crip here, you got a Blood here, we not here for nobody to get hurt. We're here to protect our community. Me and him, we're supposed to be at arms, killing each other. Instead we in a church hugging each other."Gang experts generally discounted the police advisory that the Crips, Bloods and BGF gangs had come together to target police."You're not going to get three different gangs to come together that fast," Knox said. "It's not realistic and it's not logical and it's not consistent."Peter Moskos,a former Baltimore police officer who is an assistant professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, said Batts was making a "red herring" argument about widespread gang problems in the city.Moskos said Batts, who previously headed the Oakland, Calif., Police Department, was "taking that from Oakland where [gang violence] was a real problem. His wholegang focus is out of touch. It's ridiculous."DavidM. Kennedy, a professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, said hewasn'tsurprised that church leaders stood with gang members to ask forpeace. Even in high-crime neighborhoods, gang members are known to watch out for the areas, he said."People in these neighborhoods don't like chaos and destruction," said Kennedy, who has been advising Baltimore on policing strategies. "It's being driven by a small, number of people."Gilliard said the gang members who reached out to help could be "a catalyst" for change in the neighborhood, helping leaders communicate better with the youth. "I believe they are valuable," he said.Perkins said the city can use all the help it can get because of the "leadership vacuum" he sees on the streets as police and protesters continue to face off without few signs of visible enforcement."At this point things are spiraling out of control," Perkins said. "The police still do not have control of the streets. This is a dangerous situation because in a vacuum, leadership will emerge. The question is what type of leadership."ddonovan@baltsun.com-mpuente@baltsun.com-luke.broawater@baltsun.com

NASA: Russia seeks contact with craft bound for International Space Station-By Laura Smith-Spark, CNN-Updated 11:15 AM ET, Wed April 29, 2015

(CNN)Russia is trying to figure out its next steps after losing contact with an unmanned cargo spacecraft on a resupply mission to the International Space Station that is now spinning out of control, NASA said Wednesday.The ISS Progress 59 cargo spacecraft launched successfully early Tuesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.But after it separated from the Soyuz booster rocket's third stage, Russian flight controllers were unable to confirm the health of all the spacecraft's systems, including the deployment of navigational antennae, NASA said.A planned rendezvous with the ISS six hours later was initially postponed to Thursday but has now been canceled, NASA said in its latest update."Docking has been called off for the Progress 59 spacecraft," it said. "Russian flight controllers are continuing to assess the vehicle and what the plan going forward will be. Additional information will be provided as it becomes available."Few details have been forthcoming so far from Russia's space agency, Roscosmos.According to NASA, the cargo ship is carrying more than 3 tons of food, fuel, oxygen, spare parts and scientific experiment hardware for the space station.But the hitch will not put the six ISS crew members at risk, NASA said."The spacecraft was not carrying any supplies critical for the United States Operating Segment (USOS) of the station," a statement said. "Both the Russian and USOS segments of the station continue to operate normally and are adequately supplied well beyond the next planned resupply flight."That next flight, which will be the seventh SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the space station, is not scheduled to take off before June 19, NASA said.Meanwhile, Russian flight controllers continue their efforts to make contact with Progress 59 as it passes over Russian ground stations.NASA said Tuesday that Russian flight controllers had "confirmed that the vehicle had entered into a slow spin and have issued commands to attempt to control it."According to Russian state news agency Tass, six attempts to make contact were to be made Wednesday.The U.S. supplies on board the spacecraft include spare parts for the station's environmental control and life support system, backup spacewalk hardware and crew clothing, "all of which are replaceable," NASA said.U.S. astronaut Terry Virts, from Maryland, is the current space station commander.CNN's Amanda Barnett contributed to this report.
