Several hundred people rallied September 27 in Miami against police killing of an unarmed 19-year-old Black man, Antonio Butler, on September 20. Juan Méndez, the cop who shot Butler in the back, had been involved in three fatal shootings since 1984. Protesters demanded the firing of Méndez and Miami police chief William O'Brien.
