FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF SAMMY YATIM WHO WAS KILLED BY TORONTO POLICE ON JULY 27 GATHERED FOR A DEMO AT DUNDAS SQUARE IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO, ON AND MARCH TO THE SCENE OF THE SHOOTING ON DUNDAS ST W. |
The grieving woman broke down and wept during a downtown rally Monday evening attended by hundreds protesting his weekend shooting death by Toronto Police.

Yatim's devastated sister, Sarah, also expressed the family's anger.
"Are we going to let this stand?" she shouted during the protest, which began at 5 p.m. at Yonge-Dundas Square and concluded outside Toronto Police's 14 Division headquarters.
"Justice for Sammy" and "accountability" were the rallying cries as hundreds marched against Saturday's shooting death of the 18-year-old native of Syria. (more...)
