Hmong community calls for justice in Siskiyou County police killing of farmer By Jill Tucker Community activists are demanding that Siskiyou County law enforcement agencies explain why their officers fatally shot a farmer last month during a wildfire evacuation, saying they are concerned that the killing is part of a pattern of racial discrimination against Hmong people. On Saturday, activists held a vigil outside the county courthouse to draw attention to the case. On June 28 during an evacuation caused by the Lava Fire, officers from several agencies — the Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Etna Police Department — shot and killed Soobleej Kaub Hawj, 35, at a roadblock.
