The mother of Freddie Gray, the man who died from a fatal spine injury while in police custody in Baltimore earlier this year, attempted to commit suicide Wednesday night.

A Baltimore police spokesman says that Gray's mother, Gloria Darden, was taken to a hospital to be treated for "self-inflicted injuries," according to People. Fortunately, Darden's injuries were "non life-threatening," and she is expected to recover, the spokesman said.

Sources say Darden was transported from her home in north Baltimore to a nearby hospital, after officials received a call around 9:35 p.m. Wednesday. She did not need surgery or stitches.

Following the incident, attorney Billy Murphy, who is representing the Gray family, released a statement to CBS Baltimore Thursday night, saying that Darden "is still mourning the loss of her son." He added, "The family asks that you continue to pray for her and for them."

The death of Darden's 25-year-old son sparked national outraged and ongoing protests, when he died of a severe and critical neck injury on April 19, exactly seven days after he was apprehended by police. According to officials, the African-American man was arrested for carrying an illegal switchblade knife on the morning of April 12. Gray was then placed inside of a police van, where he fell into a coma after sustaining the injury.

Following his death, the six officers involved in arresting and transporting Gray -- Edward Nero, Garrett Miller, William Porter and Caesar Goodson, and Lt. Brian Rice and Sgt. Alicia White -- were arrested on reckless endangerment charges. Rice, Porter and White are additionally facing manslaughter, while Goodson also faces charges for second-degree murder.

Officer Porter is scheduled to be the first cop in the case to go on trial on Nov. 30.
