About 100 demonstrators are gathered tonight in downtown Oakland, protesting the fatal shooting by a BART police officer of an unarmed man.

Police in riot gear shut down Broadway between 12th and 16th streets after protesters began stopping cars and buses and threw trash cans into the middle of the street. Some protesters carried signs that read, "No justice, no peace." Others carried candles.

At Walgreens on 14th and Broadway, a protester threw a rock at the window. The window remained intact, but the manager came out, locked the front door and pulled a metal gate around the door and closed early for the night. A Rite-Aid across the street did the same.
