Activists call for accountability in Wauwatosa officer-involved shooting that injured woman

WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Local activists spoke at the Wauwatosa Police Department Tuesday, Dec. 15. 

They're upset about last week's officer-involved shooting that left a woman hurt.

"The ink has not yet dried on the resignation of Joseph Mensah, and we have within weeks, a brand new act of unnecessary force in Wauwatosa," said community activist Vaun Mayes.

The woman was shot after police say she was involved in a fight with another woman.

Tuesday's speakers called for a fully transparent investigation into why she was shot. 

They also demand full implementation of body cams in Wauwatosa.
