Gang Member Enters Police Station Armed

Baltimore police officers are on heightened alert after they disarmed a man who took a loaded handgun into a police station. Police said Jason Armstrong, 29, told them he was acting on orders of the Black Guerrilla Family gang.

They said he walked into the Northeastern District station on Argonne Drive near Morgan State University shortly before 9 a.m. smelling of marijuana. Officers searched him and found a .22-caliber handgun with a bullet in the chamber, marijuana and cocaine.

Police said he told officers he had been ordered by BGF leaders to walk into a police district station with the gun and drugs to test police security. Armstrong was taken into custody and faces narcotics and gun charges, police said. His charging documents had not yet been posted to the state’s online database Tuesday night, and neither he nor an attorney could be reached for comment.

Batts said he plans to convene a meeting with “federal partners” including the FBI, Drug Enforcement Agency and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to discuss the Black Guerrilla Family. Baltimore FBI spokeswoman Amy J. Thoreson said the agency has offered Baltimore police any assistance it can provide.

In early December, police union officials in New York circulated information they said they received from a Maryland police department that the gang would target its officers. Batts, asked about the warning during a Twitter chat with residents at the time, called it an “anonymous hoax.”

The Baltimore FBI office later issued a memo saying the gang was targeting “white cops” in Maryland. The memo said a gang contact claimed that BGF members linked to the corruption scandal at the Baltimore City Detention Center wanted to “send a message” by attacking white officers.

A teenager, who died Saturday in a shootout with Maryland police, is suspected of murdering his mother, father and sister in their home. Jason Hendrix, 16, led police on a high-speech car chase through Baltimore County after his SUV ran a traffic stop. Hendrix eventually ran into another car, then started shooting at police.

“Officers then returned fire,” the Baltimore County Police Department said in a statement. “The suspect in the vehicle, who was the only occupant in the vehicles, was declared deceased at the scene.” Authorities traced Hendrix’s vehicle registration back to his home in Corbin, Ky., where they found the bodies of Hendrix’s parents, Sarah and Kevin Hendrix, and sister, Grace Hendrix.

“All three were shot in the head at least twice,” Corbin Police Chief David Campbell told the Lexington Herald Leader. “A pillow was used to try to muffle the gunshot used on all three individuals. The pillows were still on their faces.”

Although the unfortunate incident seems to be a frequent occurrence between Blacks and police—and has been publicized thanks to camera phones and social media—Baton Rouge native, Boosie BadAzz, tells VladTV that he's been talking about police brutality ever since his own experiences.

"Black Lives Matter is the truth" he told DJ Vlad, "I've been saying f*** the police [but] they ain't believe me until technology came with all of these damn camera phones. Police killed one of our ghetto heroes in 1989. Jumped on a car and shot him down." He added, "It's been going on, I've been saying f*** the police."

Woman Found Ten Years Later

A woman who disappeared as a teenager a decade ago was reunited with her family after she went to police and told them her mother’s ex-boyfriend drugged and kidnapped her in 2004, forced her to marry him and fathered her child.

Isidro Garcia, 41, of Bell Gardens, was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping for rape, lewd acts with a minor and false imprisonment, the Santa Ana Police Department said. Police described a decade during which the woman — abused mentally, physically and sexually by her captor — was moved at least four times and given multiple fake identities to hide her from family and authorities.

According to police, Garcia told her that if she tried to contact her family, the police would deport her to Mexico and that he was her only hope. She was locked up at first, but she eventually began to lead what appeared from the outside to be a normal life.

Neighbors were stunned, describing the couple as seemingly happy. They doted on their young daughter and liked to host parties at their apartment in the working-class community of Bell Gardens, about 20 miles from where she originally disappeared.

Cop Busted Running Prostitution Ring

Barnhill was arrested last week after police found a 16-year-old female runaway in his apartment. The girl told police that Barnhill had taken nude photographs of her and offered to arrange paid sex acts for her with other men, and that she had encountered other woman at the apartment who said they worked as prostitutes for Barnhill.

Superior Court Magistrate Judge Frederick Sullivan rejected a defense lawyer’s request to release Linwood Barnhill Jr., during a court hearing that revealed an earlier prostitution-related investigation into the officer. A District of Columbia police officer charged with running a prostitution operation from his apartment will remain behind bars, a judge ruled Wednesday, calling him a “rogue” cop and a major flight risk.

Another teenage girl subsequently interviewed by police said Barnhill invited her to work as an escort for him, then offered to pay her for sex with another man. Barnhill, 47, has been charged with two counts of pandering of a minor and has been in custody since his arrest.

At a hearing Wednesday, internal affairs officer Jeffrey Williams testified that police had received an anonymous tip in 2011 alleging that Barnhill had been smoking marijuana and was using his apartment for prostitution. Police later conducted surveillance on the apartment but found no evidence to support the allegations.

5 Shot During Rally

At least five people were shot near the site of protests over the fatal shooting of a black man by police at the Fourth Precinct, police said. At this time, it is not clear on the exact number of people shot as some shooting victims found their own way to a hospital. Police said that five people are being treated for what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries. Police have not released any information on a possible suspect or suspects.

The protests at the police precinct are in their tenth day following the shooting death of 24-year-old Jamar Clark. Authorities say Clark was shot during a struggle with police, but some people who say they saw the shooting allege Clark was handcuffed.

Eddie Sutton, Jamar Clark’s brother, released a statement: “Thank you to the community for the incredible support you have shown for our family in this difficult time. We appreciate Black Lives Matter for holding it down and keeping the protests peaceful. But in light of tonight’s shootings, the family feels out of imminent concern for the safety of the occupiers, we must get the occupation of the 4th precinct ended and onto the next step.”

Woman Loses Eye In Ferguson Protest

A pregnant St. Louis woman wants justice after she lost her left eye in a violent run-in with police. Before Dornnella Conner went for a ride into the hell that engulfed St. Louis suburb on Monday night, she shared an illustration with her Facebook friends of Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin walking arm-in-arm – along with her own thoughts: “RIP – feeling mad.”

Just hours later she would be part of the tragic storyline when a police officer fired a non-lethal bean bag round at the car her boyfriend was driving, shattering the passenger side window and leaving her face a bloody mess. Protesters took to the streets when a St. Louis grand jury chose not to charge police officer Darren Wilson in the Aug. 9 shooting death of Brown.

The couple was parked at the BP gas station on New Halls Ferry Road in St. Louis, just north of the mayhem in Ferguson, when police moved in to clear the area. Police reported gun fire from the gas station and eventually made 16 arrests.

Police also claim someone tried to run down an officer, who fired at the car fearing for his safety. Turns out, Conner was struck. Doctors were unable to save her left eye and Conner reports blurry vision in the other. Conner said she and her beau were just bystanders caught up in an unfortunate situation.

Two Men With Bombs Arrested

Kenyan police have arrested two men suspected of links to a Somali Islamist militant group after they were tracked and found to have two large bombs that may have been aimed for use in the area of the port city of Mombasa.

The Somali al Shabaab Islamist group has claimed several attacks on Kenya in the past. After a September raid by gunmen on a Nairobi shopping mall that killed at least 67 people, the group said it planned more attacks. The coast, which is popular with tourists, has been a target.

Police recovered two large improvised explosive devices (IEDs), or hand-made bombs, from the men. We suspect they were planning to detonate them somewhere around Mombasa. Police had trailed the suspects after intercepting telephone communications they were making with suspected accomplices in Somalia.
