Black Lives Matter activists in an encampment blocked the main entrance to the Police Department’s precinct headquarters in north Minneapolis Monday in the wake of police shooting and critically wounding a man over the weekend.
The activists have alleged that 24-year-old Jamar Clark, who is black, was unarmed and handcuffed when he was shot early Sunday on the street in the 1600 block of Plymouth Avenue N. during a struggle with police.

The last word from police was that Clark was being treated at Hennepin County Medical Center. They have yet to disclose his condition. Nekima Levy-Pounds, president of the Minneapolis NAACP, countered that Clark had been “shot and killed” by police.
Clark’s relatives gathered Sunday at HCMC, where a physician told them that their loved one was brain dead, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports.
