The driver was taking Randy Cox, 36, to a police station in New Haven, Connecticut, on June 19 for processing on a weapons charge when he braked hard to avoid a collision, police said, causing Cox to fly headfirst into the wall of the van. His family said he remains paralyzed from the chest down. Hundreds of protesters led by Crump, members of Cox's family and the local NAACP staged a march Friday evening in New Haven to the city's police headquarters. With many carrying signs and banners with Cox's face and the hashtag #Justice4RandyCox, the crowd chanted slogans like"Randy Cox's life matters," “protect Black people” and “no justice, no peace."
