THE WHOLE WORLD IS watching the US city of Baltimore, which has been engulfed in rioting since Monday.

The unrest broke out in reaction to the death of Freddie Grey, who was injured while he was in police custody.

More than 250 people have been arrested - but some powerful moments are going viral amid the reports of violence.
