A planned protest set for last night in Bronxville was canceled.
But that didn't stop some people from showing up to call for change. "My heart is hurting for our country and everything that is going on and we had enough. This has to stop. The police brutality, unarmed black men being practically lynched in front of us. It’s not right," says Evette Miller.
The event was supposed to be at village hall. There is no word if a formal gathering will be rescheduled.
