杰兰德·沃克之死是指2022年6月27日,25岁的黑人杰兰德·沃克 ( Jayland Walker ) 被阿克伦警察局警察殺死的事件,當天杰兰德·沃克被該警察局的警察追赶,結果警察向其連開90多槍,最終杰兰德·沃克被打死。 [3][1]
事發經過
[编辑]2022年6月27日早上,杰兰德·沃克因涉嫌交通違法而被警察攔住。据阿克伦警察局表示,沃克拒絕配合並开车离开現場。警方表示,在警方追捕杰兰德·沃克期间,杰兰德·沃克從車內開槍朝警方射擊,但杰兰德·沃克家屬聘請的律师Bobby DiCello並不相信警方的說法。 [4][5]
後來戴着巴拉克拉法帽的杰兰德·沃克下车逃走,随后警察下車追趕並朝其連開90多槍。 [6]警方認定是杰兰德·沃克的舉動令警方感到威脅,所以警察才會開槍。 [7]最終沃克被警察戴上手铐,而此時沃克已死亡。 [8]
沃克家屬聘請的律师表示,根據警用密錄器显示,警察在开枪时沃克手无寸铁。 [9]法医在解剖其尸體時發現沃克身上有60多处枪伤。 [9][10][11]
2022年7月3日,警方向外界公開了警用密錄器錄下的視頻。根據已公開的视频,警察的確朝杰兰德·沃克开了数十枪。阿克伦警察局局长斯蒂芬·迈利特表示这段视频“令人震惊”。 [12]
反应
[编辑]阿克伦官员表示,由于此次枪击事件,原定於美国独立日的庆祝活动将被取消。 [13]
枪击事件发生当天,抗议者聚集在位於阿克伦市中心的警察局外表示不滿。美国全国有色人种协进会计划于7月2日前往阿克伦聲援示威。[14]

Mr. DiCello also raised questions about the police report’s narrative that Mr. Walker had fired a gun while driving away from officers. 'The rear windshield is intact, the front windshield is intact and all side windows are intact,' he said. 'There’s no call, there’s no report that we’ve seen and there’s been no mention by the chief in personal discussions with him that a gun was seen outside the car, waving at or being pointed at anyone.'
