One of the most memorable images from the Baltimore riots has come from a man pretending to be Michael Jackson. Dimitri Reeves has been trying to diffuse tensions in the protests of Freddy Gray's death by impersonating the late pop star. He's popped up across the city to perform "Beat It," "Smooth Criminal," and other classics. He's even busted out a perfect moonwalk.
