Hundreds of people gathered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Saturday to demand justice for Amir Locke, a 22-year-old Black man who was fatally shot by a police last week. Crowds held signs calling for the resignation of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and officer Mark Hanneman, who shot Locke, according to CBS Minnesota.
"This is not easy, to have to bury your son," Locke's father, Andre, told a crowd Saturday, according to video posted to Twitter.
He said Locke's mother was "so overwhelmed with grief, disbelief, sorrow, everything that you could imagine that a mother feels when she loses her baby."
