Protest continues over chokehold death of black man on New York subway

NEW YORK, May 8: Demonstrations went on in New York City on Saturday, five days after 30-year-old black man Jordan Neely was allegedly choked to death by 24-year-old white U.S. marine veteran Daniel Penny on a subway in the city.

Protesters angry about Neely's death took over a busy Manhattan subway stop, with some of them jumping to the tracks near the electrified third rail, according to police and witness videos. Police made several arrests with some of those arrested still being processed at the scene hours later, witnesses said.
