PROTESTERS CHANT 'MURDER' IN POLICE SHOOTING OF BLACK MAN IN CALIFORNIA


Protesters yelled "murder" and demanded a federal investigation on Wednesday after a police officer in southern California shot and killed an unarmed black man, less than two weeks after similar incidents sparked outrage in two other U.S. cities. In the latest shooting, two officers responded to calls about an African-American man in his 30s walking in traffic and "not acting like himself," according to police in El Cajon, a city of about 100,000 residents some 15 miles (24 km) northeast of San Diego. Police did not immediately identify the victim, but local activists and friends named him as Ugandan-born Alfred Olango.
