On Jan 1, 2009, BART Police Officer Johannes Mehserly shot and killed Oscar Grant. Shortly after, protests in Oakland turned violent, with many windows broken and cars set afire ect. Officer Mehselry was later charged with murder. That trial is now in the hands of the jury and a verdict is expected very soon. In anticipation of the verdict and possible violent protests many businesses have boarded the windows of storefronts along Broadway and other streets in Oakland. This three shot collage shows a call for protest and some boarded up windows at a bank and T-Mobile store.
