The mayor of Baltimore has announced that she will not seek re-election when polls are held in 2016.

Stephanie Rawlings-Blake made the announcement five months after wide scale rioting erupted following the death of a black man who was injured in police custody.

She recently announced that the city had settled with the family of victim Freddie Gray for $6.4m (£4.15m) to avoid civil litigation.

Ms Rawlings-Blake became mayor in 2010.
