These protests have focused on different cases in which someone was shot and killed by law enforcement.

The last two weeks centered around breonna taylor and dana fletcher.

Crystal ragland was shot by huntsville police after they said she attempted to pull what appeared to be a gun from her pocket.

Officers said she ignored their commands, which lead to them firing at her.

The incident review board also determined that officers followed procedure.
