Diahlo Grant Case: Soaries Will Call For Federal Investigation; Black Lives Matter Hits The Streets

Diahlo Grant March - 22
Protesters march in New Brunswick July 21, demanding answers in the death of township resident Diahlo Grant.

The Rev. DeForest “Buster” Soaries said July 21 that he will call for a federal investigation of whether a Franklin man’s civil rights were violated when he was killed in a shootout with township police.

Several hours later, unrelated to Soaries’ statement, the Rutgers University chapter of Black Lives Matter took to the streets in New Brunswick, marching and chanting from the spot on which the man was killed to the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office building.
