nights are very enraged of course becoming more enraged when finding out through an autopsy that kamani gray was shot seven times three of those bullets hitting him in the back by two plainclothes police officers this angered a community community that feels that it is been targeted repeatedly for years by the new york city police department between stop and frisk or the fact that it is a predominately black community many they say teenagers have fallen victim to police shootings over the course of the past years and they feel that that this needs to stop this must stop they say that they were trying over the past years to work with the new york city police department but now it's beyond a dialogue and conversation which is why you see so many people flooding the streets displaying a lot of frustration and a lot of anger over the fatal shooting of this sixteen year old boy that was standing in front of his best friend's home and many say that he did not point a gun at the police officers that is what authorities are alleging that the these two are plainclothes officers shot at the money gray

less to deal with this problem once and for all now police say that the approach that the suspects kamani gray that he was armed and the weapon was a loaded and that gray point the gun on the police officer is what about police having the right to act when they feel that their life is in danger. look the police whenever they murder or kill a black or latino youth it is always deemed justifiable homicide the witnesses tell a different story i've been in court with police theory. to say this happened you know testified three lives it happens again and again it's unacceptable and it must be stopped and i'll tell you it's going to take revolution nothing less to stop it that's the approach that i take to wear and that's the importance of this film is for me airing in harlem is saturday be a speech revolution nothing less where he's going to talk about horrors like it's why they happen again and again but also that it doesn't have to be this way to revolution we could bring a different world into being without the television degradation that people are. on people today in this society those are onl

police say no one was arrested last night during a candlelight vigil held for the for kamani gray but that's not to say that the night was without trouble community members who attended the vigil squared off with members of occupy wall street the two groups had dueling messages for the n.y.p.d. that oftentimes drowned one another out a number of community protesters also showed up at a press conference held by city councilman jermaine williams and once again they express their anger and frustration with the city. i think. that's. what. we discussed. our correspondent on a stasia churkin i was out on the streets of brooklyn last night covering the protests brings us this report. that. last saturday sixteen year old kimani gray was killed by police shot four times in the front and three in the back. the n.y.p.d. claimed the teen had pointed a gun at them however this remains i'm certain that there was a weapon that no one saw and not his friends his family didn't know he had a weapon and there were a lot of witnesses who. were able to see it that this individual. a weapon as these candl

protested and held vigils for four straight days because on saturday night a 16-year-old boy named kamani grayver police. the story is unclear at this point. officers say gray had a .38 and pointed it at them. if that's true, then it's a justified killing. but some are doubting that story. some eyewitnesss say gray did not have a gun. i'd like to see if his fingerprints are on the gun found at the scene. officers say they yelled, don't move, but others say they did not identify themselves as nypd and gray may have thought he was being robbed. what was gray doing to attract police attention? standing on a corner. when they approached, he walked away and grabbed at his waistband and made cops zero in on him. this is part of the culture of stop and frisk. young black men are treated as suspicious until proven not. nypd recently conducted their 5 millionth stop and frisk. 4.3 million of them on black and brown men. the overwhelming majority of them not arrested as a result. now comes the part where the boy gets put on public trial. if he had a concealed weapon, if he was in a gang, if he had prior
