Walter Wallace Jr.’s family called for peace during a press conference in front of their Philadelphia, Penn. home on Tuesday, steps away from where the 27-year-old father was shot by police. His eldest son, Zamir Wallace, also addressed the media:
“We used to always play around … He used to always teach me how to be a man.” Zamir Wallace said, "White racist cops got my own dad, and Black lives still matter."
Wallace's parents answered questions, giving a better idea of what happened leading up to the deadly encounter with police.
The police shooting sparked protests across the city, with looting also reported on the nights of October 26 and 27.
“Have respect for my family and my son and stop this violence and chaos that’s going on in the city,” Wallace Sr. said.
