Video of US police killing Black man ignites protests in Ohio
TRT World says SEVERAL hundred protesters have marched in Akron, Ohio after the release of a body camera footage that showed police fatally shooting a Black man with several dozen rounds of bullets.
As anger rose over the latest police killing of a Black man in the United States, and authorities appealed for calm, a crowd marched to City Hall on Sunday carrying banners with slogans such as “Justice for Jayland.”
The slogan refers to Jayland Walker, 25, who was killed on Monday after officers tried to stop his car over a traffic violation, police said.
Sunday marked the fourth straight day of protests.
After the first rally, a crowd of people remained in the street protesting as evening fell but it was in a less organised fashion. There were no reports of violence.
