Philando Castile Shot During Traffic Stop; Girlfriend Live-Streams Aftermath

Philando Castile, 32, was shot seven times by St. Anthony, MN officer Jeronimo Yanez during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights, MN. Castile had calmly informed Yanez he had a licensed firearm; Yanez shot him seconds later. His girlfriend Diamond Reynolds live-streamed the aftermath on Facebook, with Castile's four-year-old daughter in the back seat. Yanez was acquitted of all charges in June 2017. The city of Falcon Heights settled with Reynolds for $800,000. Castile's killing became a defining case in debates about policing and Black gun owners.
