Protesters against gun violence and police shootings marched down Chicago's Michigan Avenue on New Year's Eve.
Students from Northern Illinois University were part of the demonstration this afternoon in memory of 19-year-old QuintonioLegrier, a student at the school who was fatally shot by a Chicago police officer on Saturday.
Bettie Jones, a 55-year-old neighbor of Legrier, was accidentally shot in the same incident on Saturday.
Rev. Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Church also was part of the protest. He says the bloodshed in Chicago is unacceptable and "it's got to stop."
Other protests are also planned, including one at City Hall and a downtown federal prison.
