This is exclusive video of Baltimore gang members being arrested inside a house on North Avenue Saturday night for curfew violation:

They say police did not have a warrant. The second man being led out of house is Flex, who is profiled in my Matter story on gang truces.

The gangs feel they are being targeted by police because of their unity. First with the five arrests on Saturday night, then on Monday afternoon when they say one member, Meech, was shot by police. In a briefing on the street Monday afternoon, the Baltimore Police Department denied anyone had been shot or injured. But other gang members told me he was and then they were subsequently maced.

This is a photo from in front of the house on North Avenue where men pour milk over their arms from the mace.
