Louisville-- Protesters want public to see video of white cops beating handcuffed Black man
Protesters have been gathering in front of police headquarters at Seventh and Jefferson streets since the December 2002 shooting of James Taylor -- a black man who was killed by a white officer. Coleman said that since that time, other cases have also caused concern. Yesterday participants prayed for those involved in recent cases, including Marshall Galloway, 25, who was restrained in a headlock by an officer and sprayed with pepper spray even after he was handcuffed. Forty-five minutes of that incident were caught on police video. [more]
