DeRay Mckesson, others won’t be prosecuted in Baton Rouge
A 13-year-old male was also arrested and charged with simple burglary and theft of firearm. A federal magistrate said Bridgewater would be returned to state custody following the hearing.

Police arrested Malik Bridgewater, 20, and three other suspects on theft and burglary charges after eight handguns were stolen from a pawn shop.
The protesters in questions were only arrested after they failed to follow officers’ directions to clear out of a roadway or public passage, the release says.
The arrests came amid heightened tensions in Baton Rouge following a black man’s fatal shooting during a struggle with two white police officers.
According to The Associated Press, Bridgewater was still being held in the Baton Rouge jail after he declined to enter a plea during a court appearance on Friday. The demonstrators were angry after police shooting deaths of black men in Baton Rouge and Minnesota.
Baton Rouge Police Chief Carl Dabadie said threats like that justified an increased show of force at the demonstrations, as officers donned riot gear after starting with a mostly reserved, low profile.
Baton Rouge Police say they arrested a 12-year-old boy Friday who they say was the fourth suspect in a plot to kill police with handguns stolen from a city pawn shop.
Moore said in a statement that he made the decision after reviewing 185 probable cause arrests between July 8 and July 11.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Louisiana had filed a lawsuit earlier this week over police treatment of protesters.
Moore says DeRay Mckesson, a prominent Black Lives Matter activist, is among those who will not be prosecuted.
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) – Mourners gather Friday to pay their last respects to a 37-year-old black man shot and killed in an encounter with two white police officers in Louisiana, a killing that helped fuel protests nationwide over the treatment of African-Americans by police. Police have been on high alert since then, both because of the protests in Baton Rouge and over concerns that they could become a target as officers in the Dallas shooting of police officers, in which five were killed.
Mr Moore said his office was reviewing the rest of the arrests, which included allegations such as resisting arrest, carrying guns or some “act of violence”.
The president replied, “The thing you expressed, Cameron, is what I meant when I said the country’s not as divided as it seems”.
