Law-enforcement helicopters circled over central Baltimore Monday afternoon as police clashed with civilians following the funeral for Freddie Gray. Pockets of juveniles hurled rocks, bricks, and other objects at officers in skirmishes across the city.

At least 15 police officers have been injured, according to a press conference held by city officials Monday evening. One of the officers was said to be unconscious and unresponsive. Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake referred to the juveniles as "thugs."
