Hundreds occupy intersection then march in protest of OPD killing of
Demouria Hogg

OAKLAND - Hundreds of protesters occupied the intersection at Lakeshore
Ave. and Lake Park Ave. in the Lake Merritt area of Oakland on Friday,
June 12, 2015.
Protesters surrounded a group of twelve whom had chained themselves to
each other and sat down in the middle of the intersection. The
protesters held the intersection for two hours before marching in the
street for another two hours.
Protesters called for justice for Demouria Hogg, who was killed by
Oakland Police on Saturday, June 6, and for justice for all those whose
lives that have been stolen by racist policing.
The protesters defied Oakland Mayor Libby Schaff's ban on protesting in
the street and protesting after dark. OPD was out in force, but stayed
back from the large nonviolent crowd and re-routed traffic. The protest
began with a vigil at 6 pm and ended around 10 pm.
