This the full video of the St. Louis shooting of Kajieme Powell. The police brutality in Ferguson continues as this was the 2nd young black man shot in that area recently. The St. Louis Police shot and killed 23-year-old Kajieme Powell, less than four miles from where police shot and killed unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown.

Please post your comments on this site. I want to know if you think the police did right or was this another example of police brutality.
