| A woman holds up a protest sign at a rally at Public Square in downtown Cleveland that highlights that unarmed Blacks Malissa Williams and Tim Russell were gunned down with 137 rounds of ammunition by a group of White Cleveland police officers that have yet to be criminally charged and are still on the job. The unprecedented shooting occurred late last year following a car chase that ultimately culminated in 65 police cars and over 100 police officers. The chase began from a downtown Cleveland location and ended in neighboring East Cleveland with a hail of bullets. One police officer jumped on the hood of the 1979 Chevy Malibu that Russell was driving with Williams as a passenger and shot through the front windshield over 40 times. Community activists and victims family members will hold another of several protests over the issue that has caused racial unrest and has increased tensions between police and the Black community at 6 pm on April 29 at Cleveland City Hall (Next to the woman in this picture is longtime greater Cleveland community activist Don Bryant, who leads The People's Forum and The Greater Cleveland Immigrant Support Network) |
