According to NBC4i, nearly 100 people gathered Sunday at the Kroger store where a pregnant woman identified as Ta’kiya Young was shot and killed by Blendon Township police on Thursday.

Protesters said police did not have probable cause to shoot the 21-year-old woman.

Police said the incident started Thursday night when they got a call of a woman shoplifting at the store on Sunbury Road.

Once she got in her car, police allege that Young drove toward officers when one officer fired his gun. Officers and a “passing ER doctor” rendered aid to Young, who later died at St. Ann’s Hospital.
