Description Baltimore
North & Pennsylvania Avenues
May 1st, after the State's Attorney for Baltimore City's announcement of criminal charges being filed against the 6 Baltimore City police officers in connection with the death of Freddie Gray.

Baltimore City Police Lieutenant reviewing Pennsylvania State Troopers on loan to Maryland.  The check cashing business was one of the first places looted during rioting on Monday. . .

It's very rare that I have a song in my head while shooting anything.  But I did this time.  It was Pink Floyd's Waiting for the Worms.

So... the black City Police Lieutenant is the only one without a donut belly. His look speaks volumes, or counts calories.

With the background of Baltimore this image speaks a hell of a story - so full of irony.

Perfect timing for a great shot!

Yes, I'm afraid that is so.  The Lieutenant actually looked like he spends a fair amount of time in the gym!
Thanks so much!

Actually, I'm wondering if maybe the apparent belly is caused by their bullet proof vest?

Yes, except that given how fat these cops are, they could never chase after anyone.

They should lay off the donuts.  That way, they won't have to worry about diabetes, heart disease or knee problems due to the extra weight they carry on their stomachs.

I had to check the faces on this one to see if I recognized anyone, but I don't. One of our Troopers came into the Court on Wednesday and said that 5 or 6 were going down from our local barrack on Thursday to stay through Sunday.  I like how the Baltimore City Police Lieutenant is checking them out.
