Damn, yall, a black mans life was worth less than the spent cartridge used to end it out in Cali as police put a cap in him while he was lying on the ground:

Law enforcement officials urged patience while they investigated details surrounding the fatal New Years Day shooting of a 22-year-old man by a transit agency police officer.

Bay Area Rapid Transit Police Chief Gary Gee said on Sunday that the agency is committed to completing an unbiased, thorough and detailed investigation of the shooting death of Oscar Grant.

This case is not even four days cold. Were in the early stages of the investigation and we will do a very thorough job, he said.

Several unanswered questions remained after BART officers went to Oaklands Fruitvale station to investigate reports of a supposed brawl on a train on which Grant was riding around 2 a.m. Thursday.

A friend of Grants who was with him on the crowded Oakland train station platform at the time of the shooting said Grant pleaded with officers not to harm him.

Oscar yelled, You shot me! I got a four-year-old daughter, said Fernando Anicete. Oscar was telling us to calm down and we did. We werent looking for any trouble.

Anicete was among more than 50 people attending a tearful news conference in Oakland on Sunday where Grants family announced they planned to file a $25 million claim against the Bay Area Rapid Transit agency this week. A claim is the first step in the process of suing the agency.

The familys attorney John Burris said the shooting was intentional, and that he planned to ask Alameda County prosecutors to seek criminal charges against the officer. Burris said Grant, of Hayward, Calif., posed no threat to officers when a bullet entered his back and ricocheted to his lung area, killing him almost instantly.

You gotta be f*cking kidding that the police out in Cali are still executing blacks and other minorities with no regard. This is some bullsh*t and were glad the family is seeking retribution. R.I.P. young brother.
