Freddie Gray protestors flood Camden Street, attempt to disrupt Orioles game (Big League Stew)

On Saturday, protestors started gathering in the streets of Baltimore to express their anger over the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old African-American man suffered a spinal injury that allegedly occurred while he was being arrested by Baltimore police.

According to reports early in the day, the protests were mostly peaceful. However, as the day has gone along, the protests have become most destructive, with numerous reports of prospectors throwing objects at police dressed in riot gear, and breaking out windows in police cars and buildings around Camden and Howard Street, which is right outside Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the home of the Baltimore Orioles.
