Protesters react to police detaining demonstrators along the FDR in Manhattan as thousands take to the streets of New York demanding justice for the death of Eric Garner December 5, 2014. A New York City grand jury decided not to charge white police officer Daniel Pantaleo in the chokehold death of unarmed black man Garner, sparking outrage and protests on Wednesday, and the U.S. Justice Department said it would investigate the incident. Garner, a 43-year-old father of six, was accused of illegally selling cigarettes on July 17 when police officers tackled him and put him in a chokehold. Police said he had been resisting arrest.
