London police chief faces calls to resign after officers smash vigil to murdered Sarah Everard
CNN
Women's rights activists in the UK are reeling from the Metropolitan Police's heavy-handed approach at a Saturday night vigil for Sarah Everard, a 33-year old who was murdered while walking home in South London earlier this month.
The man who is accused of murdering her is a serving member of that same police force. Throughout the day, mourners had flocked to the bandstand of Clapham Common, an area where Everard was last seen, in a tribute to her life.
