“The 15-year-old son of Alton Sterling, a black man who was shot and killed by white police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, wept uncontrollably and cried "Daddy!" this morning as his mother spoke to reporters about the deadly confrontation, which was captured on video.
"He [her son Cameron Sterling] had to watch this, as this was put all over the outlets," Quinyetta McMillan said. "As a mother, I have now been forced to raise a son who is going to remember what happened to his father."
Alton Sterling, 37, was killed early Tuesday in a shooting that was captured on cellphone video. In the video, two officers appear to struggle with Sterling and slam him to the ground.
One man seems to yell "gun." Then at least two shots are fired while the officers are close to Sterling.”
