A crowd of more than 300 people marched on the streets of Philadelphia to register their protest against racial injustice.

The cops were attacked with rocks and bricks by the angry protestors. Looting at about ten different places was also reported during a violent march after the encounter of Walter Wallace.

A 56-years-old female officer got hit by a truck and was immediately taken to the hospital with a severe leg fracture. A video posted on different social media platforms shows that a police mobile was also set on fire.

On Monday afternoon, at about 4 pm,  a 27-year-old black man, Walter Wallace was shot dead.  He was fired multiple times on the chest and shoulder.

The authorities claim that he was holding a knife, which he denied to drop despite continuous yelling by the cops.  The incident was recorded on camera by a bystander. The situation intensified the feeling of ferocity among the public, particularly the black community.
