Philando Castile Dead after being shot by a police officer during a traffic stop in Minnesota. This shooting happened hours after Alton Sterling was shot and killed by Baton Rouge police in front of a convenience store. In the very graphic video, Castile’s girlfriend, Lavish Reynolds filmed the interaction between the victim and the officer who shot him. According to Reynolds, Castile did notify the officer that he did have a firearm and reached for his license and registration, only for the cop to shoot him four times.
Castile’s four-year old daughter was also in the vehicle.
