Gangs Unite to Kill Cops, Baltimore Police Department Warns
DAMN!!!! On Monday, the Baltimore Police Department announced there was a “credible threat” against law enforcement officers from three gangs: the Black Guerilla Family, the Bloods and the Crips. Authorities received information that the gangs “entered into a partnership to ‘take-out law enforcement officers.” This comes after a weekend of protests in Baltimore over the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who sustained a neck injury, leading to his death, during an arrest. Similar protests have been ongoing since August 2014, when Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson, Missouri and Eric Garner died of injuries sustained during an arrest for selling loose cigarettes in Staten Island. Neither of the officers involved in those deaths were indicted. The full statement from the Baltimore Police Department here: CREDIBLE THREAT TO LAW ENFORCEMENT Baltimore, Md., April 27, 2015 – The Baltimore Police Department / Criminal Intelligence Unit has received credible information that members of various gangs including the Black Guerilla Family, Bloods, and Crips have entered into a partnership to “take-out” law enforcement officers. This is a credible threat. Law enforcement agencies should take appropriate precautions to ensure the safety of their officers. Notification will be sent via NLETS. Further information will be sent through appropriate channels.

Lil Wayne Tour Bus Shot Up in Atlanta
Lil Wayne’s tour bus took on gunfire in Atlanta early Sunday morning … TMZ has learned. Wayne performed at Compound nightclub on Saturday night … and sources tell us the shooting went down shortly after 3:30 AM — minutes after Wayne’s 2 tour buses pulled away from the club. We’re told Weezy and a few other Young Money execs and artists — including Lil Twist and Hood — were on board at least one of the buses at the time of the shooting. It appears no one was injured, and it’s still unclear if Wayne was on board the bus that was hit. Law enforcement sources tell us immediately after the shooting the bus was driven to a nearby hotel, and that’s when someone in Wayne’s entourage called cops. We’re told witnesses on the buses didn’t see much — their only description of the suspects is that they were in 2 white vehicles … a sports car (possibly a Corvette) and an SUV.
Updating trends on mobile
I been thinking something was wrong with my Twitter cause i used the Discoery alot Trends are a great way to find out what people are talking about on Twitter at a given moment and at a single glance. Starting today, we’re making some updates to the trends experience on mobile to make them more informative and easier to find. We know that trends aren’t always self-explanatory, so now you’ll see a description below each trend. Since trends tend to be abbreviations without context, like #NYFW, a description will make it clear that this trend is about New York Fashion Week. The new trends experience may also include how many Tweets have been sent and whether a topic is trending up or down. New trends with descriptions As part of this change, we’re moving trends to the search page and retiring #discover and activity for all iOS and Android users. We’ve been working to make content easier to find over the last several months in places like your home timeline – with recaps and Tweets from within your network – and through efforts like MagicRecs. We’ll continue to make improvements like these in the future. Update your Twitter app for iOS or Android to the latest version to access these features. The new trends with descriptions experience is rolling out now in the U.S. in English for users who have tailored trends on iOS and Android. We’re currently experimenting with similar features on web and look forward to expanding this experience to more countries in the future. Update (April 22): Starting today, we will be removing discover and launching trends with descriptions on web. We’re also expanding our trends with descriptions experience to the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Note: Trends with descriptions are only available for tailored trends users in English.
