The University of Maryland, Baltimore and numerous downtown businesses closed early Monday, citing concerns about potentially violent activity in the area.
Lexington Market, a city courthouse and businesses including T. Rowe Price and Venable LLP said police warned them of large gatherings and protests downtown.
According to widely circulated flier, a high school "purge" was to take place at 3 p.m., starting at Mondawmin and ending downtown.
Such memes have been known to circulate regularly, but today's has led to bolstered police presence around the city.
The flier includes an image of protesters smashing the windshield of a police car this past weekend after a march spurred by the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old man who died earlier this month after being arrested by city police, turned violent and destructive.
A post on the University of Maryland Baltimore's website said that the closure was prompted by a recommendation from city police. The campus will also stop shuttle service.

That’s a very distinguished record for this fine young man and pillar of the community.
If I Lived there I would be on the porch with a 16 gauge auto loaded with buckshot and the family would be on the roof with a few .308 AR platforms.
Bring it Homie!
It’s the only thing that stopped the Rodney King rioting.
Baltimore when it started today
S. Africa
This is Baltimore’s Civil War. It is a prelude to America’s Second Civil War. Liberals realize that the elections and legislation will continue to go against them. What they can’t achieve by democratic means, they will try to achieve through violence. America better be paying attention.
What’s funny is that now in South Africa they are rioting against blacks from other parts of Africa who have come to South Africa.
What channel are you on? They sound calm on the one I'm listening to.
Bingo.
The govenor should call up the Militia! We are being attacked by an enemy within. Obviously the government is way over matched.
Fire for effect.
The government is on the rioters' side.
I first turned on Fox News. But Shepherd Smith was CONDONING the rioters and looters. So I switched over to CNN, and Wolf Blitzer is telling the truth about the criminals using this as an excuse.
People are throwing rocks at the police cruisers that are racing by them.
SCANNER:
Another CVS being attacked.
CNN Live:
Cell Phone store being looted.
It’s FREE SCHIT NIGHT in Baltimore.
Baltimore City Police. That’s all I know.
the only reason we are supposed to have government at various levels is to defend the public and prevent chaos and anarchy. Baltimore gets a FAIL
And the idiots who elect DEMOCRATS are responsible.
Here in Missouri, it was the DEMOCRAT officials who allowed and enabled the destruction in Ferguson. Especially Gov. Jay Nixon, who should have been impeached.
Facts you won’t hear by black leaders.
90% of murders in Baltimore victim is black.
90% of murders committed by Blacks.
Yeah, it’s obviously a Police caused problem.
