several motorcycles have shown up, and these motor psych ellers are going up and down the street, almost entertaining the crowd, but causing a feeling of somewhat unrest in this neighborhood. this neighborhood which today started out the day rebuilding their community, their businesses, and their lives. people have been gathering here at the intersection of pennsylvania and northwest avenues all day. very peaceful gatherings. people singing praying, and even debating. all under the watchful eye of police in riot gear. on the ground as well as police and news helicopters overhead. meanwhile, shopkeepers have been cleaning up after looters ransacked and destroyed several businesses here. the levy family has operated this shoe store for more than 30 years. >> the damage was done by a group of opportunistic young

people that i guess had the opportunity. they knew the police were on the other side of town so they started breaking in on this side. and they ripped off the front door and my alarm went off. and they said they sent the police, and i'm watching them carry bags, talking about 50 people. i have a video of it, just carrying stuff out of the store. >> reporter: again back here live you can see the scene is relatively calm out here on the intersection, but a lot of people are concerned about what will happen tonight at 10:00 when police tell people they have to get off the streets. coming up at 5:00 you'll see more of that surveillance video from inside that shoe store, and you'll hear from the owner about who he blames for last night's problems. in baltimore, reporting live, mark segraves, news4. >> mark thank you. our team coverage of that state of emergency in baltimore picks up now with news4's tracee wilkins, live with a look at how the community is responding. she's in another crowd. trace tracee? >> reporter: well, i have to tell you that since we've been here in baltimore what we have

i don't know if anybody else wants anything. you can take whatever you'd like. >> i can't help clean up but i live right over here. i figured if i can't help clean up, i can help the people who are helping to clean up. >> reporter: now, while here on pennsylvania at the front line, if you will there were feelings of tension and at some points if you're close enough to it, it feels almost like a military state. but as you move through other parts of the city, nearby this area but not as close to where all of this is happening, what you feel is something very different. and that is this community preparing itself and trying to come back together again and have some semblance of a baltimore that they know and love. coming up on news4 at 5, we're going to have more on what we have seen here in terms of people some of whom don't even live in baltimore but have come to try and help put the city back together again. reporting live in baltimore tracee wilkins, back to you in the studio. >> tisha thompson is back at the live desk for us this afternoon tracking the latest out of baltimore. tisha?

i think there are police departments that have to do some soul searching. i think there's some community that's have to do some soul searching. but i think we as a country have to do some soul searching. if we think that we're just going to send the police to do the dirty work of containing the problems that arise there without as a nation and as a society saying, what can we do to change those communities, to help lift up those communities and give those kids opportunity, then we're not going to solve this problem. >> the president called that violence counter productive to say the least. he said those who are responsible for it are undermining jobs and opportunity opportunities in their own communities. pat and jim. >> thank you. we'll check back with you throughout the evening. a live picture again in west baltimore. the crowds are growing. they have been all afternoon. a lot of young people and older people as well too. we should say leaders in the

this mother did just that. from the baltimore police commissioner to hundreds of our facebook users she's being hailed for taking action. the video was shot by tommy born. he was nearby at koppen state university when he heard about disturbances in the street. he told nbc news that the kids he saw needed adults in their lives. the future of same sex marriage is now in the haptd fz the u.s. supreme court. >> justices heard arguments from both sides of the issue as emotions outside the court ran high today. news4's chris gordon just talked to one of the couples at the center of this case. chris? >> reporter: well, good evening. this case is considered historic by a lot of people. the justices asking probing questions to both sides like this, is marriage a fundamental right? and, if so, if you deny a license to a gay couple, is that sexual discrimination? well, this case is expected to answer those questions.

these are the same sex couples from kentucky, michigan ohio, and tennessee who brought this historic case all the way to the u.s. supreme court. on the sidewalk out front people demonstrated. there were suepporters of marriage equality and others who say they will never accept it. 36 states and d.c. have legalized same sex marriage. at issue is whether the other 14 states should be required to issue licenses and recognize same sex marriages that are legal in other states. court watchers believe there could be a 4-4 split on the supreme court. and that could make you justice anthony kennedy the swing vote. today kennedy says marriage has been between a man and a woman for ma len ya plus time. it's only been debated ten years. kennedy wondered aloud, it's very difficult for the court to say, we know better. the attorney representing the states that banned same sex marriage took it as a good sign. >> people get to decide how to

define marriage, not the courts. and that there are real implications when the courts take that away. >> reporter: i asked a couple from tennessee among the plaintiffs who brought this case all the way to the supreme court how they think it went. >> hard to say. i think especially after the hearing arguments. it's harder to say. because, you know, their questions are so probing. but really on both sides really just going at the nitty-gritty. we don't know. we'll see. >> reporter: this case will be decided in late june. now, coming up on news4 at 5, we'll hear from a local virginia couple who has a stake in it. why the commonwealth of virginia filed a brief in it. and we'll also hear from local opponents of same sex marriage. all that coming up on news4 at 5:00. we're live at the supreme court, chris gordon, news4. >> thank you chris. you can hear the wind out there. that's one of the issues this afternoon, isn't it? >> it is. especially for anyone who suffers from allergies. we have a high pollen count, the wind -- >> it's blowing it around. >> we it is. we have the scratchy eyes and

night, throwing bricks, rocks and bottles at police injuring more than a dozen officers just hours after a funeral for freddie gray, the 25-year-old who died after he was severely injured while being held by police. >> the freddie gray situation was just the straw that broke the camel's back for real. therefore everybody is angry. this is what's going to happen. >> reporter: today state and local officials are erm determined to make sure it doesn't happen again. >> it's been now less than 24 hours. you see we have a couple of thousand more people on the streets in baltimore. >> reporter: police, along with national guard troops most in full riot gear a show of force designed to deliver a message. >> we're going to bring whatever resources are necessary, whatever assets are necessary, as much manpower as necessary, to let the citizens of baltimore know that their neighborhoods are going to be safe. >> reporter: still, there is an uneasy tension right now as this community and officers gather again, waiting to see what happens next.

the looters came through here and took so much from this store and then the fire took what was left over. now, people who have been going inside have really been trying to do some cleanup inside this business, not necessarily looking to take anything. it seems from our perspective. we did have a chance today to talk to a young man who says he's the manager of this store. he made the decision to shut this store down early yesterday afternoon. >> i'm glad we did. i'm glad we did what we did. i don't even know if they would have did looting would have just been possible. we would have got hurt. who knows. i'm glad we got out of the store, we got everybody out of the store. >> reporter: while the damage here in this store means it's very likely it won't reopen, the manager we spoke to says he won't leave people hanging. they're going to try to move the employees to other stores if at all possible. cvs saying that tonight they will close every cvs store in baltimore early. aaron gilchrist in baltimore, news4. house minority leader nancy

>> the airline you choose has a lot to do with whether you'll score free travel. "consumer reports" analyzed the latest data and found southwest the most generous carrier, giving away 11.5% of its seats. jetblue is the stingiest, giving away only 4.5%. united, american and delta fall in between. "consumer reports" has a few other tips for redeeming your miles. >> book several months in advance when there are more award seats available. still, last-minute searches can also work because people change plans and seats become free. >> if you're hoping to travel overseas and there are no award seats available on your u.s. carrier, check the foreign partners. you may be able to get one of their award seattles for instance, american's partners include british airways, delta has air france and united has lufthansa, among others. >> don't necessarily jump on any free seat. you don't want to waste your miles on a cheap trip. >> it to figure out if it's worth it divide the price of the ticket by the number of

miles you're spending. if the result is less than a penny, you're better off paying cash. if you're short mile for a trip you want, don't buy them. they're not a bargain. keep in mind, if you don't have enough miles for that round trip ticket, most airlines will let you pay one way with miles and pay for the return with your credit card. coming up at 5, businesses looted. cars destroyed. but who's going to pay for the damage? we're going to be taking a look at how insurance plays a role in the unrest in baltimore. that's coming up at 5:00. >> an important question to raise. erika, see you then. we'll show you a live look again at crowds gathered on the streets of west baltimore. the city now under a state of emergency. in just eye few hours, a week-long curfew kicks in starting at 10:00 tonight.

and would you say things are under control right now and your prospects for the evening, how do they look right now? >> well, we're hopeful for the evening. we have a large contingent of national guard and state police as well as allied law enforcement, including d.c. metropolitan police joining in to support baltimore city pd. we're hopeful. there are community activists that are also out on the street trying to keep calm keep the nerves down and calm some of the young folks. so we're hopeful. very hopeful. >> lieutenant governor rutherford, some are saying the response to this came late. what do you say? and is there anything you would do differently at this point? >> well, we were relying on the duly elected leadership in baltimore city. they are the front line. they are in control of the front line agencies.

we are working with the city to determine what their needs were. we were prepared once they asked us for assistance, that being the state, and we provided that assistance. >> do you feel like the ask came too late? we saw some signs on saturday that there was going to be trouble. >> yeah. i don't want to second-guess the city officials at this time. we'll have a lot of time to go back and look at how things can be done better. but the main thing is we're there now, providing resources. we had been operational in our management center, maryland emergency management. that's where i am now and have been here since about 7:00 this morning and was here a little after midnight last night. we've been up since saturday in our operation, and we will look at best practices and after-action reports in due time. >> and governor rutherford what are your thoughts about those who blame the anger and

frustration that we've seen on problems ss like the city's high unemployment rate, the teen unemployment rate, the lack of opportunity in the city and bad police/community relation snz. >> well i would say those are factors that boiled up from many years ago one of the previous mayors took a street-sweeping policy. and when he did that, it created this hostility between the police and the neighborhoods and communities. baltimore definitely has chal challenges with high unemployment, undereducation and some other factors. some of that frustration may have boiled over. families are broken up. there are some challenges associated with that. but that's still not an excuse for what happened. basically, what we saw was lawlessness. there's no question about it. there are a lot of factors that come into play, but there was a breakdown in civil society and law msness. >> lieutenant governor, a

message for parents tonight and perhaps for business leaders or business owners, too. what is your message to them? >> well, the message to parents is to talk to your kids and know where your children are. even if your child is 20 or 21 years old and living at home or not, talk to them and make sure they're not involved in something like this. because it is lawlessness. for the it folks in baltimore city, they're essentially tearing up their own neighborhood. when you burn down a cvs drugstore, where is your mom or grandma going to get her medications from? so all you're doing is tearing up your own neighborhood from that standpoint, and we don't know how long it's going to take to get a replacement in there. >> maryland lieutenant governor boyd rutherford thank you so much for joining us this afternoon. >> thank you. veronica joins us once again. as my throat closes up on me, we were talking about the pollen. every now and again you hear people going hoarse in our
