Sickening Footage Shows Akron Cops Kill Unarmed Black Man in Hail of Bullets
Police in Akron, Ohio, have released heartbreaking body-camera footage showing the moment an unarmed 25-year-old Black man was shot more than 60 times by cops.
One of the videos shown at a press conference Sunday shows Jayland Walker pleading as eight officers pursue him on foot. They pursue him for several seconds before he turns around, at which point the cops unleash a barrage of gunfire on him.
Police Chief Stephen Mylett confirmed Sunday that Walker was unarmed when he was killed by police. He had a hand gun and loaded magazine in his silver Buick.
