After rioting, Baltimore police, staff to receive $1.7M in workers comp payments

After Baltimore descended into rioting in April, police officers and other city staffers have filed 169 workers compensation claims with city government, reporting various injuries, a budget official said Tuesday.
 

As a result, the city expects to pay out $1.7 million, according to Bob Cenname, Baltimore’s deputy budget director.

The costs are among an estimated $20 million the rioting is expected to cost taxpayers. Officials are temporarily covering the costs with money from the city’s rainy day fund while seeking reimbursement for up to 75 percent from Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It will cost far more then that before this is said and done. I think the Mayor was criminally negligent it what she did. Moseby is a psycho and needs to step down from the legal profession on a State level. Private firm she is just another dumb ass. He crooked husband has know gang associations. Wake up America Baltimore is burning.
