Moments later, one of the officers shot and killed Sterling, a black man who had been selling CDs outside the store, while he was on the ground. A day later, a white police officer shot and killed Philando Castile during a traffic stop in a suburb of Minneapolis. Coming after several similar cases in recent years, the killings rekindled debate over policing practices and the Black Lives Matter movement. (Arthur Reed via AP)
