Photos Of Memorial for Gary King, Killed By Oakland Police September 20th

by Z
On September 20th, a policeman shot and killed a man on the street in North Oakland. Gary King had just exited a store on the corner of 54th street and MLK. Apparently a police officer approached him for questioning. The details of what happened next are unclear, but it seems that it involved the policeman using a taser. King pulled away and it appears that during his attempt to flee, the officer shot him twice in the back. A memorial with candles and personal items is set up at the place where the shooting occurred. A protest will be held on Monday, September 24th at noon at Oakland City Hall.
