Protesters march for Somali man
About 400 people gathered in Minneapolis Saturday to march in protest of a fatal police shooting of a Somali man March 10.
The protesters marched from near the corner of East Franklin Avenue and Chicago Avenue South, where Abu Kassim Jeilani was killed, to downtown Minneapolis. Many marchers chanted "Justice for Jeilani" and "No justice, no peace. Prosecute the police" as they made the trek through Minneapolis.
Counterprotesters were also present, carrying signs supporting the police.
