-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In an update on the Freddie Gray case, prosecutors have accused
Baltimore police officer Caesar Goodson of fatally injuring Gray by
giving him a "rough ride" in a police van. Gray died of spinal injuries
last year after he was arrested and transported in the van. His death
sparked a series of protests in Baltimore. Goodson, who drove the police
van, is the third officer to go on trial.
