Police and officials in Grand Rapids, Michigan are calling for calm as protests erupt over the death of Patrick Lyoya, a Black man who was shot by a white officer during a traffic stop.

Video released this week showed a brief foot chase and a struggle over the officer's Taser before Lyoya is shot in the head as he was face down on the ground. The police chief is calling the shooting a tragedy.

Michigan State Police are working to determine whether the officer acted in self-defence, or as Jennifer Johnson reports, he should face criminal charges.
