This story was originally posted on April 9, 2001: The anger over this latest deadly shooting is at least partially due to the number of African American suspects who have been shot and killed by on-duty Cincinnati police recently.
Since January 1995, Cincinnati Police on duty have killed 15 African American men.
Fourteen of the 15 suspects were shot to death.
No white suspects have been killed during that same timespan.
This is the second deadly shooting by Cincinnati police so far this year.
