Police van carrying Gray made undisclosed stop

By Mark Hensch

Baltimore police have completed their investigation into the death of Freddie Gray and turned over their findings to prosecutors — one day earlier than the department's self-imposed deadline, the commissioner said Thursday morning.

Authorities have said the state's attorney's office will review the information, consider charges and decide how to move forward in the death of Gray, who was stopped by police April 12. He suffered spinal injuries while in custody and died a week later.

In his announcement at a news conference, Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts did not give details of the report or take questions. He said the department dedicated more than 30 detectives to working on the case and report.

"I understand the frustration; I understand the sense of urgency. ... That is why we have finished it a day ahead of time," Batts said.

Batts also said police would continue to work on the case at the direction of the state's attorney.

At the same news conference, Deputy Commissioner Kevin Davis reviewed the timeline of Gray's time in custody and his death. Gray was arrested after he made eye contact with officers and ran. After a chase, officers pinned him down and handcuffed him. They loaded him into a van and put leg cuffs on him when officers said he became "irate" in the wagon.

Davis said Thursday that police discovered a new stop the van made with Gray in it, but they did not say what happened. Davis said the stop was found through footage from a privately owned camera.

At a later stop at the tail end of Gray's ride, police put another man in the van. He told investigators that Gray was "was still moving around, that he was kicking and making noises" up until the van arrived at the police station. Batts said the man also said the driver did not speed, make sudden stops of "drive erratically."

I say there is still a lot to the story that we don't know yet.

Heard a report last night and again this morning that the other man in custody  reported that Gray appeared to be trying to hurt himself in the Van. Gray has a history of filing injury lawsuits.

BALTIMORE, Md. (WJLA) -- An investigation into the death of Baltimore resident Freddie Gray has found no evidence that his fatal injuries were caused during the videotaped arrest and interaction with police officers, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

The sources spoke to ABC7 News after being briefed on the findings of a police report tuned over to prosecutors on Thursday as well as preliminary findings made by the medical examiner's office.

Sources said the medical examiner found Gray's catastrophic injury was caused when he slammed into the back of the police transport van, apparently breaking his neck; a head injury he sustained matches a bolt in the back of the van.

Batts said the man also said the driver did not speed, make sudden stops of "drive erratically."

But, but, but someone heard somewhere that the police took him on a wild ride!

But, but, but someone heard somewhere that the police took him on a wild ride! 

Either Gray made a mistake and fell the wrong way or the guy might have some incentive to say that.

No way for us to know...
