#JusticeForMikeBrown : Watch NYC Protest for Michael Brown (Video)
Thousands gathered in New York City to protest the non-indictment in the Michael Brown case.
After the announcement was made that officer Darren Wilson will not be charged with the shooting death of 18-year-old, Michael Brown, thousands gathered and emerged in their hometowns to protest in what they felt was a grave injustice.
Protest for Michael Brown
After several months of testimony and rounding up evidence, the grand jury deemed it wasn’t efficient enough to indict, even on the lesser charge of manslaughter.

Michael Brown, 18, was allegedly walking home with a friend when he was approached by a Ferguson police officer, and then shot and killed. Police say a struggle ensued which prompted the officer to fire shots. However, several witnesses have come forward sharing different accounts of the events stating Brown surrendered before being shot.
The untimely death of Brown has caused nationwide protests and rallies in support of Brown and the countless other men and women who have been killed by the police.
