Mayor Vince Gray released the following statement on the news that D.C. Council Chair Kwame Brown will be charged with bank fraud and will have to resign:

“I’m shocked by the news; I am disappointed and saddened. I was elected to the Council when Chairman Brown was elected to an at-large position. I served with him my entire time on the Council. Never would I have imagined something like this would occur.”
