2015-12-25 |
[BALTIMORE.CBSLOCAL] The city of Baltimore expects to reimburse other local police and fire agencies from across Maryland a total of $1.8 million for responding to the civil unrest that followed the death of Freddie Gray last spring, a city front man said Thursday. The tally includes both requests that have been paid and those still under review, Howard Libit said in an email. He said he expects all the requests to be paid. The requests are for overtime, equipment costs and other expenses claimed by about 30 public agencies and volunteer fire companies in 16 of Maryland's 23 counties. |
