More than 1,000 mourners attended a funeral on Saturday for Christian Taylor, an unarmed 19-year-old African American fatally shot by a white officer in Texas in an incident that raised fresh attention of police treatment of racial minorities.

“It is reasonable that officers were concerned that a weapon may be present”, Johnson said.

The footage shows him walking around the dealership, but does not show the actual encounter with officers.

Police have said the officers told Taylor to surrender and lie down on the ground, but he refused.
