Baltimore City Councilman Brandon Scott:
"I’m pissed off. This is the city that I love. We can cannot stand idle and let cowards ruin our city. If you are an adult and you are out there participating in this, you are ruining the future for these young people.
Ever able man and women needs to get out there and stand tall and stand up for your neighborhood. We cannot let this be a repeat of 1968. The neighborhood they’re in right now is still burned down from 1968." -

Elijah Cummings' powerful voice and heavy heart
baltimoresun.comI don't know if he could ever stop teenagers from doing stupid and violent things, but, if any man could command attention — and even persuade his fellow citizens to keep the protests of Freddie Gray's death in the days ahead forceful but peaceful — it's the 64-year-old congressman who stood front and center to make such a plea Sunday at Bethel AME Church in West Baltimore. -

Dispatch from Sun reporter Mark Puente:
A new senior center being built by the Southern Baptist Church in East Baltimore was ablaze Monday night – a huge, raging fire visible from blocks away. Several ladder trucks were attempting to quell the fire, at the corner of North Chester and East Lanvale streets, and keep it from spreading to nearby houses. The new center was being built across the street from the church.
Out front, about 60 parishioners watched in shock, many of them crying. “Who would do this to our church,” one woman sobbed. “Why, why,” she asked. -

Dispatch from Sun reporter Yvonne Wenger:
At least four fire companies worked Monday night to put out a blaze at a building under construction at Chester and East Lanvale streets, East Baltimore. The building was to be a 60-unit housing complex and community center for senior citizens.
The Rev. Donte Hickman of Southern Baptist Church across the street earlier had marched for peace in West Baltimore but was now watching firefighters battle the blaze.
He said he believed the riots in Baltimore was going to call attention to the suffering of so many in the city and force change.
“This fire is going to spark a revival,” he said. -
