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.

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.

Heard Smith for a few minutes and he said that this is not black or white and if we want to report it as that then all we are doing is causing racial strife. After a couple of questions he still refused to cover this as mostly blacks rioting.
Hercules, Hercules, Hercules.

That’s a pity. I’ve had many a good time in Charm City over the years.
Everyone is wondering where the Mayor went?
She’s probably doing her hair before the next news conference.
Whoops... news conference coming up....It’s being speculated she’ll call for even more space for black criminals.
Looters entering the mall..... Oh yeah.
Mayor’s news conference scheduled for 7:45 p.m. EDT.

Chopper pilots saying many of the stores being looted the store owners are being severely beaten..
The Mayor’s going to have a problem speaking even if they let her....they might just have asked she resign. Which she should jump on!
