Under sunny skies, Maryland's governor, Martin O'Malley, made an appearance as did the current mayor, Sheila Dixon. The president of the City Council, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, was also there. She will succeed Dixon in the office of mayor, on Feb. 4, 2010. Suddenly, the festivities were interrupted by a 30-Second police chase.
