On Thursday, East Palo Alto city council held a town hall meeting with the community, local clergy members and police to start a dialogue about the deadly shooting at Jack Farrell Park.
"It must’ve been about 50 kids out there. All of this transpired and I’m ducking and dodging but at the same time, I can’t duck because I’m looking for my baby. I’m trying to find my son, it was scary mess!" said JP, who called into the virtual meeting.
Others criticized police for a slow response to Tuesday’s shooting and police not being properly equipped to give CPR. City Council members also expressed their own feelings. After Ralph Fields Jr was shot and killed at the park, one council member said Fields' cousin, an NFL player, shouldn’t be associated with the case.
