Baltimore police task force hunts down fugitives to help suppress violence

Baltimore police, as part of a regional task force, have executed hundreds of warrants in a matter of days as part of stepped-up efforts to get suspected criminals off the street. The Warrant Apprehension Task Force is made up of law officers from the city and Baltimore County and the U.S. Marshals. Above, Detective John Giganti, left, and Sgt.
