Law enforcement officials in Baltimore moved Wednesday to increase protection of officers and others who work in the city's police stations.
They suspended a program that brought violent offenders into police facilities, and they put armed officers at the front desks of every station.
They ordered the measures a day after police said officers wrestled a loaded gun from a man who had come to the Northeastern District station for a meeting with a probation agent. The man told detectives that Black Guerrilla Family gang leaders had ordered him to bring the gun in to test police security.
Jason Armstrong, 29, faces several gun and drug charges. He remained in a Baltimore City jail without bail Wednesday.

The only thing I have to say is "it took long enough." Police should have been aware of the Black Guerrilla Family Gang years ago and what they stood for.
ReplyDeleteBelieve it was in the 1990's they became known in the MD Prison system. They were the "ASSAINS" for the Nation of Islam. A supposedly religious organization.
They are all over MD, including Salisbury. The three major Gangs, Black Guerilla Family, Crypts and Bloods are all over Salisbury. Surprise Surprise Surprise.
You better wake last week now is to late.
