Baltimore's top prosecutor has announced criminal charges against six officers involved in the case of 25-year-old black man Freddie Gray who died in police custody.
According to BBC, state prosecutor Marilyn Mosby said that Gray's death was a homicide and the arrest was illegal.
The charges range from second-degree murder to assault. However, a lawyer for the officers said that they "did nothing wrong".
All six officers are currently under arrest and have been suspended.
The death of Gray has sparked protests that turned violent in the city of Baltimore.
