LOUISVILLE, Ky. Lights bounced off black and navy balloons as they floated into the darkness early Tuesday morning, one year to the minute after David YaYa McAtee was shot and killed by law enforcement outside his West End restaurant.
It was a somber sight for the more than 50 people who d come to remember the barbecue owner, known for his kindness and generosity.
But after a year of tragedy, it also offered a moment of healing. We said our chants and everybody was in unison, said Chaunda Lee, a protester who organized the balloon release. Everybody was unified last night for David McAtee.
