Third Lawsuit Filed By Alton Sterling Protestors

Baton Rouge Tense As DOJ Prepares To Announce Findings In Alton Sterling Case

A third lawsuit has been filed by protesters who demonstrated following the police killing of Alton Sterling.

Several Baton Rouge law enforcement agents are named in the suit filed last night, which claims the plaintiffs were unlawfully arrested.  The lawsuit was filed by 13 protesters and two journalists.

Sterling was shot and killed last summer after an altercation with police outside a convenience store.
