brutality.

Around 150 people gathered around the French Capital after the news broke out and protesters, which included many high school students, claiming that this is the
second case of police brutality that has happened recently. The first being a young black man who was allegedly raped with a police baton. Not only so ,but just a year
before another young black man by the name of Adama Traore died while in police custody. The evening before the protests broke out, 56 year-old Liu Shaoyo was shot
dead in his home after, from police sources, the victim rushed towards them as soon as the door opened. However, the lawyer representing the Shaoyo family claims
that authorities report that the police were responding to a neighbours emergency call, however there was no dispute involving the Shaoyo family.

Summary: Shaoyos kids, all ranging from the ages of 15-21 were cutting fish with scissors when the door to their home was busted open and
police barged in. They claim that Shaoyo did not threaten nor rush the cops, as they claim, and that police fired without warning
