Baltimore crowds celebrate tough charges against police Last
Baltimore: Residents of impoverished West Baltimore erupted in jubilation and relief Friday after authorities charged six officers in the death in custody of a young African American man.
Many had been parading through riot-scarred neighborhoods and chanting the victim`s name as security forces nervously looked on.
"Baltimore people, we did it!" shouted 18-year-old John Johnson. "Justice needs to be served!"
Cars streamed down West North Avenue in a cacophony of horns, as a man wearing a t-shirt that read "I Bleed Baltimore" thrust his fists into the air and cheered.
The community has been on edge since this week`s violent riots left several buildings in flames, stores looted, more than a dozen police officers injured and dozens of people arrested.
But residents into the streets to vent their relief at the beginning of a judicial process that could see accountability for the death of Freddie Gray in police custody.
"This is long overdue," Dexter Dillard, 47, told AFP at the corner of West North and Pennsylvania avenues, where a large pharmacy was looted and burned Monday in the worst rioting in Baltimore since the late 1960s.

The Fraternal Order of Police lodge in Baltimore City is asking for Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby to remove herself from the Freddie Gray investigation and appoint a special prosecutor. On Friday, Mosby announced she was filing charges against six officers in the death of Freddie Gray.
According to Capital Gazette, the president of the Fraternal Order of Police lodge argues she has a personal conflict due to connections with both Freddie Gray’s attorney Bill Murphy and her husband, City Councilman Nick Mosby.
Attorney and former judge William (Bill) H. Murphy, Jr. represents the Gray family.
Murphy was also a supporter and donated to Mosby’s campaign when she ran for office. According to state filing records, Murphy donated $5,000 dollars to Marilyn Mosby’s campaign.
Alright, we ain’t never gonna git arrested fo crimes in Bawtimoh no mo!
Michael Savage was talking about this and other conflicts of interest that Mosby has for which she should be recusing herself.
George Soros reportedly could face up to $7B tax bill, after delaying payment for years.
