Protests continue in California against police brutalityTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC)-Hundreds of Americans have again held a demonstration in Sacramento, California to protest the fatal police shooting of an unarmed African-American man.  

Protesters marched on Sunday night in Sacramento in the latest of nearly two weeks of mostly peaceful rallies since Stephon Clark was gunned down in his grandmother’s yard on March 18.

The angry demonstrators were chanting slogans against police brutality and some of them were shouting at police officers with their fists in the air.

Protester Andre St. John, who said he came to help control any further violence from breaking out, pointed to a line of police and said, “Does it look like they're playing? Does it look like they're playing? No.”

Tensions were further heightened after a sheriff's patrol car struck a protester.
