Alwaght - US police officers have continued their killing spree of unarmed black men with three incidents reported within the last one week.
In the first incident police have announced that an unarmed black man was strangled to death in a physical struggle with a white police officer in Stonewall, Mississippi.
Jonathan Sanders, 39, was riding his horse buggy when he was approached by police officer Kevin Harrington Wednesday. Stonewall police confirmed the death by asphyxiation but denied the use of a flashlight.
Meanwhile Several US police officers have shot and killed an unarmed black man in Baltimore, the city that has recently been the scene of mass demonstrations over the death of Freddie Gray, a black man who died in police custody in April.
Spencer Lee McCain, 41, was shot in the Owings Mill area mid Thursday and pronounced dead at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore early at night, police said.
Police Chief Jim Johnson claimed that officers shot McCain because they thought he was armed. They, however, did not find a weapon on him.
Elsewhere an unarmed African American man has died while he was in police custody after being pepper-sprayed in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, officers said.
The man, identified as Anthony Ware, died on Friday night after officers used oleoresin capsicum spray to subdue him, said police department spokesman Sgt. Brent Blankley.
These incidents happened as US police are under harsh criticism for using excessive force against especially African Americans.
So far, several white officers have fatally shot unarmed black men as a result of which there have been numerous protests in cities across the US.
Protesters have held demonstrations over police brutality and juries’ failures to bring officers involved in the fatal shootings of black people to justice.
