Protestors pass police during demonstration for Saleem Osman

Title

Protestors pass police during demonstration for Saleem Osman

Description

Demonstrators pass helmeted NYPD officers during a protest march from Police Plaza to Central Booking in support of Saleem Osman. The protestors hold signs in Chinese, Korean and English. One sign reads "Police the Police Now!" Another partially legible sign reads "We demand [the] immediate release of Saleem." The police officer in the foreground stands with his hands clasped behind his back; his gun and holster are visible. A protestor appears to be looking up at him. Another officer looks towards the front of the march. NYPD motorbikes stand between the protestors and the officers.
