Dozens of protesters marched through the streets of Portland, Oregon, on Sunday, demanding action after Portland State University police shot and killed a Navy veteran. Cellphone video captured the early Friday incident when, witnesses say, Jason Washington was trying to break up a fight.
It appears Washington's gun fell from its holster before police shot him.
This isn't the first time tensions have risen at the university over armed campus safety officers.
Students have been strongly opposed since the policy began in 2015. One protester said she feared that it was only a matter of time before someone got killed.
Washington was a U.S. Navy veteran who worked for the post office. Police told reporters he had a concealed carry permit for his handgun.
"He was a veteran who fought for our country," said Mohammed Tuffa, who says he was involved in the fight. He said police didn't need to use deadly force. "Pepper spray could have broken everybody out. Everybody would have been on the ground crying."
The two officers involved, Shawn McKenzie and James Dewey, have been placed on administrative leave.

Конечно. Не таскал бы пушку с собой - был бы жив сейчас. Здесь полицая видя черного тянущегося к пушке долго не думают. Похожие смерти тут каждый месяц или неделю - чувак тянулся в карман за правами а полиция думала чтоэто пистолет
главное- не забыть проголосовать в ноябре.
