A vigil and protest march was held for a fourth night in a row in the New York City borough of Brooklyn to condemn the police killing of 16-year-old Kimani Gray. Kimani was shot dead by plainclothes police officers who claimed he had a gun. His mother, Carol Gray, spoke at a news conference.
Carol Gray: “I’m still waiting for Kimani to come home. And today, I’m asking for justice, and I’m asking: Why? Why was Kimani being murdered and slaughtered? Why was Kimani begging for his life? Why was Kimani saying, 'You got me. I'm down. Don’t shoot no more’? Why was Kimani saying that, if Kimani had a weapon to point at the officer?”
