Fourth Person In Custody in Shooting Near Black Lives Matter Protest

Protesters have constantly occupied the 4th Precinct since soon after the shooting.

Following the shooting of Clark, members of the Black Lives Matter movement, an global activist movement that campaigns against violence toward African-American people, marched to the 4th Precinct police station, which they have occupied to demand that authorities release video of the incident. Habu said he did not see the shooting that followed, but heard it.

While the congressman has called for the protesters to re-strategize, protesters have recently said they’re not going anywhere.

I stood behind Black Lives Matter Minneapolis with these requests and have echoed them at every opportunity. His obituary testified to his love for swimming and fishing, noted that he had been working for a local trucking company and auto wash, and recalled that “as a child, Jamar was always full of energy and had a big smile”.

Clark’s funeral service was preceded by a two-hour viewing, during which a seemingly unending stream of family filed past the casket, Clark’s face covered with a thin white veil.

More than 300 people including Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., arrived at the temple to mourn Clark and show support for the family. Bobby Joe Champion and former Minneapolis mayors R.T. Rybak and Sharon Sayles Belton. Clark’s cousin, Cameron, also was among mourners.

Following the rally, several groups of 50 to 100 people began marching and attempting to take over city streets, CBS News reported. On Tuesday, they arrested two men and two turned themselves in, but one was released after investigation revealed he wasn’t in the area when the shooting took place. To a standing ovation, Howell said: “Jamar, your life did and does have objective”. “Your death is not in vain. We are there until we get justice for Jamar Clark”, she said.

Another rally is planned to mark the death of a Minneapolis man who was killed in a confrontation with police, despite pleas from some community members to avoid such actions on the day of his funeral.

“We’re on our way, we’re gonna knock this s– out”, SaigaMarine says. Family and friends stopped in front of the precinct to acknowledge the protesters.

Clark’s death has drawn days of intense protests.

Karen Monahan, a Minneapolis-based activist, said regardless of the questions surrounding what happened, the public’s relative ignorance about what happened on November 15 exacerbates the distrust that recommendations from the president’s 21st Century Task Force, and other efforts are supposed to be correcting.

23-year-old Allen Scarsella III, of Lakeville, was also arrested Tuesday in Bloomington. All three suspects are white.

Shots were fired early Tuesday morning near the scene of a Minneapolis protest for the second night in a row, but there were no reports of injuries, police said.

The shooting of five black men at a protest focused on racial equity should be investigated as a hate crime. On one night, Grimm said, online chatter included a post stating that a pie had been left at the protest site with rat poison.

Protesters will continue to camp outside the Fourth Precinct police station, despite Jamar Clark’s family asking for a day without protests so they could mourn him at the funeral service.

The men state that they are a 10-minute drive away from a protest. Black Lives Matter Minneapolis responded, “Using a broken grand jury system that convicts less than 3% of cops is completely unacceptable”.
