MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – A portion of Summit Avenue in St. Paul closed again Monday morning as people came together over the weekend to remember Philando Castile.
A group called "Justice Occupation for Philando" hosted an event Sunday outside of the Governor's Mansion. They called it "Stand for Something Sunday."
It started at 4 p.m. and included music, dancing, spoken word and poetry. Later in the evening, the group held a candlelight vigil to honor Castile.
He was shot and killed by a St. Anthony police officer during a traffic stop earlier this month.
Overnight, the group watched a movie right on Summit Avenue.
Police were not arresting them.
