US protesters defy curfew in Baltimore
2015-04-29
[Iran Press TV] Clashes erupted between coppers and hundreds of protesters in the US city of Baltimore following days of demonstrations against police brutality in the country.

Police fired smoke bombs and tear gas to disperse the protesters who defied a curfew that took effect across the city late Tuesday.

The city is in turmoil after an African-American was killed of injuries suffered from coppers.

Freddie Gray, 25, was killed on April 19 and his funeral was held on Monday. The black man died one week after his spinal injury during arrest.

Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake imposed the curfew in response to the ongoing protests.
