After Jayland Walker was shot and killed by police in June 2016, his mother and sister organized protests demanding police reforms. On Tuesday, protesters marched through the streets of Akron, Ohio, calling for widespread police reforms. The state's investigation found that Jayland Walker had fired at least one round at officers while he was in his car and then later while he was running, and that officers believed he was going to fire again. Walker's family and some local leaders have called for the U.S. Justice Department to investigate the Akron Police Department.
