Six Baltimore Police Officers Charged Even As Their Lawyer Said ''They Did Nothing Wrong''

A lawyer for six Baltimore police officers says they "did nothing wrong", after criminal charges were announced against them in the case of Freddie Gray who died in police custody. Lawyer Michael Davey said the officers "at all times acted reasonably and in accordance with their training". 

Baltimore state prosecutor Marilyn Mosby earlier said the death of the 25-year-old black man was a homicide and his arrest had been illegal. Gray's death sparked violent protests.But after the charges were announced on Friday afternoon, celebrations broke out across Baltimore. Drivers honked their car horns as people took to the streets with fists raised in triumph.
