Joseph Black, accused of injuring a Baltimore Police Officer last week, has a criminal history dating back nearly 20 years.

It includes attempted murder charges.

Last November he got out on a plea deal from Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby’s office after pleading guilty to handgun charges.

He served 20 months of a 15 year sentence.
