BALTIMORE -- (MINS) A pedestrian was struck Friday night on Greenmount Ave., reportedly as a result of a police pursuit. But don't expect to see any media reports of it. Again we see Baltimore Police being given a pass by the press.
Although Baltimore Police haven't denied there was a -- possibly unauthorized -- chase, they're also not saying much. They did confirm a pedestrian was injured. Except for giving the time of the incident and confirming the location, no new details were disclosed.
More than 8 hours after the email, Baltimore Police have decided to move on and continue to play the strong silent type.
We're still trying to get to bottom of exactly what happened last night. This picture is a screenshot of Saturday's police briefing email -- that we were taken off the recipient list for -- sent to the media this morning. Our thanks to Justin Fenton for providing it. He'll probably be uninvited to some function as a result.
The ongoing lack of transparency and continued concealment of routine information should greatly concern any citizen. It's not acceptable and taxpayers should not tolerate it. The most basic information has to be begged for and even then, often is still denied. One wonders what else are they hiding?
