A Sunday morning cop-related shooting death of Jamar Clark has sparked a major protest and investigation in a Minnesota according to CBSLocal.
Witnesses are saying that Jamar was shot dead by a trigger-happy officer while he was handcuffed, eerily similar to the way Oscar Grant was killed in Oakland…
People in north Minneapolis are demanding answers after a man was shot by police overnight.Police say around 12:45 a.m. Sunday, they had a report of a man assaulting a woman in the 1600 block of Plymouth Avenue. On the way, another call came in that the suspect was interfering with paramedics.When officers arrived, police say there was a struggle, and an officer fired. Family members identify the man wounded as 24-year-old Jamar Clark.
Police “say” a lot of things, however…
Several witnesses on hand said that Clark’s wrists were actually handcuffed behind his back when the shot was fired.“That man was shot in cold blood while he had his hands behind his back. That’s not right,” Kiesha Steele said.
If you let the shady boys in blue tell it…
“There were handcuffs at the scene. Preliminarily, the suspect was not in handcuffs at the time of this. But this is part of the investigation,” Drew Evans, superintendent of the BCA, said.
Jamar Clark was adopted by his mother and father when he was just 4-years-old.
