Protest outside Sacramento Kings arena after Stephon Clark shooting delays NBA game

 911 received a phone call from a man saying there was a man wearing a black hoodie who had "busted both my truck windows out, and he's in people's backyards right now." The helicopter spotted someone else in a black hoodie in his grandparents back yards, the police officers make their way there, and then they started shooting him. "The officers are going to have to explain all 20 shots. They are going to have to justify repeatedly shooting," Geoffrey Alpert, a University of South Carolina criminologist who studies police chases and shootings, said. "The bottom line is we have a young African American man with a cellphone being shot dead by police." What really bothered me that the man wasn’t even armed and he only had his cell phone, after the police shot him 20 times, they were asking him to show his hands so they can approach.
