WATCH LIVE: Demonstrators demand justice for man killed in North Royalton police shooting in 2016
NORTH ROYALTON, Ohio — A rally to demand justice for Jun Wang, a 45-year-old man shot and killed by North Royalton police during an incident that occurred in 2016, was held outside of the North Royalton Police Department Saturday. Wang, whose family said he had dealt with mental illness for most of his life, was being served a probate order by police, asked for by Wang's sister Julia Rielinger due to his history with mental illness.
Rielinger said she had asked officers if she could talk to her brother before they entered the home, but officers did not allow that to happen. With Wang wielding a knife and stabbing an officer, another officer opened fire and struck Wang, killing him. The Jun Wang Foundation organized the rally Saturday with members of the community, family and friends, demanding justice for Wang, saying that new evidence will show Wang was"unlawfully executed."
Additionally, the demonstrators demand prosecutors Michael O’Malley and Dean Holman be"disciplined and removed from the post."
