Oscar Grant III

Grant, who was the father of a 4-year-old daughter, lived in Hayward. Family members characterized him at January 4 news conference as a loving father, a hard worker, and a sports enthusiast. Grant worked as a butcher at Farmer Joes grocery market in Oakland’s Dimond District. He is survived by his sister, daughter, and a girlfriend who have filed a wrongful death civil suit against the District.

For the record, i disagree with whats shown in this video, but killing all police, or total anarchy is not the answer.
im sure you dont believe this is an everyday occurence at the police, and when it does happen its usually (hopefully) dealt with.
