The family of Jacob Blake have made a series of moving statements calling for justice, after the 29-year-old father of six was shot several times by police on Sunday.
Letetra Widman, Mr Blake's sister, told reporters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Tuesday: “I'm not sad. I'm not sorry. I'm angry and I'm tired.”
“I have not cried one time. I stopped crying years ago,” she said, adding: “I have been watching police murder people who look like me for years.”
“I don't want your pity, I want change.”
Mr Blake was left paralysed after being shot seven times in the back by a police officer, according to his father and the family’s attorney, Ben Crump.
Mr Crump, a civil rights advocate, has said that there was “no indication he was armed.”
The incident has sparked a wave of unrest in Wisconsin, with violent protests now in their third day.
Two people were killed and a third seriously injured on Wednesday morning as gunfire erupted among protesters.
Kenosha police confirmed the two fatalities on Wednesday morning but have yet to release further details.
