is in effect. we now have new information on freddie gray. a prisoner who was in the police van with gray heard him banging against the walls of the vehicle. the two men were separated by a partition, so the prisoner could not actually see gray. pleas say they don't know if gray was injured during the arrest or later during the ride, but they do admit he was not buckled in. >> and later on in this hour, we are going to hear from the family members of an officer who was influenced in that arrest, in freddie gray's arrest. she actually tells don lemon what she thinks really happened in that van. >> demonstrations against police brutality are spreading to other major u.s. cities, including new york where protesters shouted shame to you to officers in the streets. police say more than 60 were arrested in this police protest. and in minneapolis, minnesota,
10:02 pm
hundreds marched down the streets. >> meantime, back in baltimore, the crowds were mostly peacefully marching on wednesday. police say they arrested about 18 people on wednesday, 35 on tuesday. far fewer, of course, than on monday night when the riots began and about 235 foot people were arrested. baltimore police have been investigating fredy gray's death. he is, of course, the man you see right there who inspired all these protests. they are expected to have a report for the state attorney's office by friday. from there, prosecutors will decide whether charges should be filed. and a first for major league baseball, the orioles and a chicago white sox played baseball in an empty stadium on wednesday. officials decided to shut out fans at camden yard because of rioting earlier this week. the orioles beat the white sox, 8-2. baltimore's manager weighed in earlier on what was an unusual matchup.
10:03 pm
>> it was different. it was different. i was real proud of our guys with their concentration level. we talked a little bit in the advance meeting today about every game is an opportunity to get closer to our goal, regardless of the circumstances. they really played well. >> and the orioles will play their home game this weekend at tropicana field in st. petersburg, florida. ryan young has more on what's been happening in the mandatory curfew. >> so the streets of baltimore are all clear. in fact, officers and community members work together to make sure the streets were empty after the curfew was in effect for the second knight in a row. but there were some very tense moments. this is when they were trying to make sure the streets were clear. you saw different gang members fighting in the streets. but community members once again stepped up and were able to push the gang members out of the way
10:04 pm
too keep the peace here then we saw the congressman walking his entire neighborhood, walking along with team, telling them to go home. officers have stood at the ready but weren't needed tonight. in fact, nothing needed to be done. the streets didn't need to be cleared because the community policed themselves. cnn, baltimore. >> we'll update you on baltimore throughout the hour. in nepal, new video shows the precise moment that earthquake hit on saturday. this is in kathmandu. take a look here. you can see the camera shaking, people, of course, running in different directions. that piece of rock or part of a building just collapsed. that building comes crashing down there. obviously, there is chaos in kathmandu at that moment. >> the official death toll stands at 5400 with at least
10:05 pm
11,000 injured. the government says it's trying to get supplies to survivors, but much more needs to be done. arwa damon and her team are trying to make their way to the epicenter of the earthquake. as you head towards the epi center, what do you see and how difficult is it to make this trip? >> it's incredibly difficult. we're on this dirt is/mud road. we just crossed two areas where landslides blocked the road off. luckily, there was a small hydro plant under construction in a valley between two mountains. so the diggers there were kind of clear of these landslides. there is a long chain of people carrying everything on their backs. they're from a village that is farther down. because aid has not arrived, they can no longer wait and they
10:06 pm
decided to back everything up and try to head towards anywhere where they can go. an old woman who is too frail to walk is being carried the entire way by one of her younger male relatives. i'm looking at girls right now probably in her teens who is carrying a suitcase on her back, but is almost as big as she is. these are people who are bringing through lovivic. looking for aid, looking for anything that they can get at this stage. and people are understandably afraid. it's not just because of the lack of assistance, but because of the jot gone dremers. we arrived in this zone probably at about 4:00 p.m. yet, there were a number of issues happening overnight.
10:07 pm
people are living under tends. they're too afraid to go back into their homes and the vast majority of the homes here have sustained some form of damage from that initial earthquake. >> and you say they've picked up pretty much everything they have and they're carrying it on their backs. they're looking for assistance. do they have a plan? where are they going and what are the chances they will get any help? that is the big problem, even in the capital of kathmandu. >> they don't know where they're going. we asked them and they said they're going to just keep on walking. i can tell you every village along the way is in pretty much the same situation that they're in. these are areas that are very difficult to access. we have seen some smaller trucks filled with food and tebt striping. al of it has been people going to see their family.
10:08 pm
we haven't seen any sort of distribution or trucks marked by the larger aid organizations. they keep hearing about the eight arriving in the city itself. but the area seems to have somehow bottlenecked. i've also got the villagers on this. in their areas, all the homes have sustained damage and they come back every single night and wait along the side of the road for assistance to arrive. it seems people are looking for a village. they're looking for a place where they can actually receive aid. they're going to have to walk for hours by car. on this road getting to where we are right now. it has taken us so far in total
10:09 pm
around six hours. >> a long walk for an uncertain destination. arwa, thank you. zain. >> and as arwa damon mentioned, aid distribution has remained riflely chaotic. molica, we've heard stories of people demonstrating, people protesting, facing off with police because there is no food. then we heard that riot police have been brought in. has that situation calmed? >> that situation has calmed down. it was really in pockets, it wasn't widespread throughout all of nepal. it is a very difficult situation out there. people are really, really frustrated because they don't have any basic supplies. they're running out of food, they don't have drinking water.
10:10 pm
they don't have any place to stay. they need shelter. they know all these basic supplies are coming into me at all pal. many countries have come together. there is an international efforts to get these supplies to the forefront of this issue. all the plies are being sent, but there is a bottleneck at kathmandu airport. we have to remember there is just one runway na nepal and there are only that many planes that can land there. we spent some time at an indian air force base and the pilots there tell us they had to come back several times because they couldn't get a landing spot. so there is a backlog. people aeshts getting aid they desperately need. that's why there is a lot of frustration, a lot of anger, which is sometimes erupting in clashes. >> also, we've heard stories about bus companies there raising their prices.
10:11 pm
i'm not sure what you've had on that, but given how desperate people are, that does seem quite disheartening. >> slights absolutely. it is a case of people being desperate. but these situations do occur at times of distress. and with so much demand to get on these buses, to get out of the city center, to go back to the villages, to reach the remote areas, there are very few buses and wsh yes, we have been hearing reports about bus companies hike up their prices. we've been hearing reports about food prices being increased, we've been hearing reports about fuel prices that were much higher right after the earthquake. the government has in the last day introduced some free bus services which is one of the reasons you're seeing people
10:12 pm
desperately trying to get out. but, again, it's all a result of demand/supply and massive amount of frustration. >> yeah. you sort of forget people are, that is audible impatient. monica, thank you very much. still to come here on cnn, an exclusive inside a human smuggling ring as they try to reach european shores. and a u.n. staffers is suspended after looeging a report. we'll explain, coming up. there are rate suckers. he's been paying more for car insurance because of their bad driving for so long, he doesn't even notice them anymore. but one day brian gets snapshot from progressive.

10:17 pm
before he was transported. >> did he hear screaming? was he in the back? it was saying that he was in the back going crazy, maybe, and yelling and moving around. >> there was -- he was irate and he was cursing. he was yelling. and he was kicking. and that's what was heard. >> what happened first? was he secured first? >> he was placed into the wagon with cuffs. he wasn't shackled. he was shackled later en route to where they were going because he was irate. they had to top. at that point, they shackled him. but the officers that shackled him and the officers that placed him in the wagon did not seat belt him. >> he was never seat belted? >> no. ite an unwritten, unspoken rule that when someone is irate in the paddy wagon, you don't reach over someone that's irate because they still have a mouth.
10:18 pm
they don't have a muscle and they can spit in your face. so you have to get in close proximity to someone in order to seat belt them. >> it has been said that the police who are driving, the person driving the van, that they will do it, they'll give them a rough ride just because they gave them so much trouble because arrested sometimes. is that true? did that happen in this case? >> how could they do that when the arresting officers actually have to call, just like they call for backup, a paddy wagon isn't right there when they arrest somebody. so they have to call for a paddy wagon. that officer doesn't know what transpired before he got there and he's not involved if trying to chase this gentleman or manhandle him. he's transportation. so when he arrives, that's basically all that he's supposed to do. >> and later this hour, we'll hear from the mother whose tough love went viral.
10:19 pm
that was after she smacked her son for taking part in the baltimore riots. she spoke with anderson cooper and she explains why she just have to do what about did. >> before we go to that, we want to update ow some other stories. japan's prime minister will be visiting silicone valley on thursday with stops planned in facebook in california. he spoke to the u.s. congress on wednesday and spoke about cooperation between the u.s. and japan and he expressed deep repentance over japan's role in world war ii. >> i offer with profound respect my eternal condolences to the souls of all american people that were lost during world war ii.

felt she had to step in. >> so you saw michael with the rock in his hand and you say you just lost it? >> i did. and, you know, once he threw that rock down, i was like, you wasn't brought up like this. >> did you worry about embarrassing him? >> not at all. he was actually embarrassing himself by wearing that mask and the hoody and doing what he was doing. and at some point i told him to take the mask off because why are you hiding behind the mask? if you want to be bold enough to do this, then show your face. >> why do you think this has made such a big impact? >> because as mothers, you don't see us. you don't see us. you see our kids walking to the bus stop and maybe speaking with somebody that's on the corner and they're already being singled out as thugs as we have already heard that they are. and at no time is my son a thug. >> we also heard from her son today. it sort of seems he has learned a lesson. but she says he is her only son.
