BALTIMORE, July 2 (UPI) -- The Baltimore Police Department announced Wednesday that it will install functional video cameras inside its police vans.
The Department, which has settled many cases of police misconduct through millions of dollars, will also conduct a review of its riot gear since some of it was ineffective during "The Battle of Mondawmin," where protesting students from a Baltimore high school incited a riot after a SWAT van nearly ran over a group of students. Officers were seen carrying pieces of broken riot shields.
