To our officers at the Harbor tonight: Protect each other and don't fall into the trap that they are only kids. Some are criminals! Keep the current policies and Consent Decree in mind. If ordered to arrest put the name of the on-scene Commander in all reporting. Mike Mancuso

Heavy police presence at the Inner Harbor. There was a large crowd of people running away as I parked. Police took control of the space opposite McKeldin Square. Mostly calm here since then, aside from some groups and police shouting at each other. Updates on @baltimoresun.com. pic.twitter.com/S2e22XoznZ
