Protesters demonstrate in Lower Manhattan in New York City, demanding justice for the death of Eric Garner. A New York City grand jury decided not to charge white police officer Daniel Pantaleo in the chokehold death of unarmed black man Garner, sparking outrage and protests on Wednesday, and the U.S. Justice Department said it would investigate the incident. Garner, a 43-year-old father of six, was accused of illegally selling cigarettes on July 17 when police officers tackled him and put him in a chokehold. Police said he had been resisting arrest.
