On Tuesday, hundreds marched through downtown Senatobia, Mississippi, in protest of the police murder of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley two days prior. Police responded to the protest, which stopped in front of the local Walmart and continued to grow in size, by teargassing the protesters. On Sunday afternoon, police officers shot and killed 1-year-old Kohen in a car outside of the Walmart.
