U.S. police in El Cajoin in California on Friday released mobile phone and surveillance videos showing their fatal shooting of 38-year-old Ugandan refugee Alfred Olango on Sept. 27.
Dozens of people took to the streets of El Cajon, a suburb of San Diego, to protest against the killing of Olango after he pointed an object, which turned out to be an e-cigarette, at a police officer.
Local police officers said they responded to a call from Olango’s sister who said she needed help because her brother was mentally unwell.
Police said they attempted to negotiate with Olango at first, but the man, refusing to listen to their directions, took an unidentified object from his pocket and pointed it at police. The police immediately shot at him.
An attorney representing Olangos said the police shot Alfred Olango dead just one minute after they arrived, without any attempt to negotiate.
