Additionally, Gray's death has been ruled a homicide.

Mosby also contended the knife Gray had in his position, which has been cited as the cause of arrest, was not illegal.

This news comes just a day after it was reported police had finished an investigation regarding Gray's arrest. The results of this investigation were given to Mosby, which led to this important announcement this morning.
