(Reuters) - Baltimore's top prosecutor plans to seek a protective order that would block the release of Freddie Gray's autopsy report and other documents as she prosecutes police over his arrest, the Baltimore Sun reported on Thursday.

Mosby has charged six officers with violations ranging from misconduct in office to, in one case, second-degree murder.
