MG Safe Streets

BALTIMORE, MD -- APRIL 12: Deontray Burgess hands off a slice of pizza to friends during the event. On the anniversary of Freddie Gray's arrest, Safe Streets staff set up tables at Pennsylvania and North Avenues and give away t-shirts, pizza and soda to get the word out about their presence in Sandtown. Safe Streets is a program started in Baltimore to cut gun violence in the most dangerous communities in the city by deploying Violence Interruptors to deescalate conflicts before they turn deadly. The newest post has just opened in the long beleaguered Sandtown community which was ground zero for the city's unrest following the death of Freddie Gray….
