Protests continue after police shoot man 20 times in his grandmother’s back yard

(KCRA) Protesters marched through downtown Sacramento for a third day in a row Thursday, calling for accountability in Stephon Clark’s police shooting death.

The protesters, organized by Black Lives Matter Sacramento, want the two police officers who killed Clark to be indicted for the shooting and to be put on trial.

Clark was shot and killed March 18 in his grandparents’ backyard in south Sacramento. Officers were responding to a call about a person breaking car windows at night, when a Sacramento County sheriff’s helicopter led officers to Clark, who began to run away. The two responding officers believed he was armed and fired 20 rounds at Clark, police said. Investigators later discovered Clark was holding a cellphone.

Sacramento police released videos of the shooting three days later.
