Here are all the police killings since just the beginning of September
Police violence against civilians, particularly black men, has once again drawn national scrutiny following the fatal shootings of Terence Crutcher, 40, in Tulsa on September 16, Keith Lamont Scott, 43, in Charlotte on September 20, and Alfred Olango in San Diego on September 27.
Since Scott's death, protests have erupted in Charlotte, leading to clashes with police in riot gear and the death of one man, Justin Carr, 26, who was shot on Thursday during demonstrations in the city.
The shootings of Scott and Crutcher, and the earlier police shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile drew widespread media attention, but they are just a handful of police shootings that took place this year. Officers have shot and killed more than 700 people in 2016 - as of September 28 - and are on track to shoot as many people in 2016 as they did in 2015, according to the Washington Post.
In September alone, police officers have killed 69 people, according to tallies kept by The Guardian and The Washington Post.
