FILE – In this March 26, 2016, file photo, Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson, who was seeking the Democratic nomination to run for mayor of Baltimore, chats with campaign volunteers in Baltimore. A federal appeals court says a Louisiana police officer injured during protests over the 2016 killing of a black man can sue Mckesson, a Black Lives Matter organizer on the grounds he acted negligently by leading people to block a highway. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday, April 24, 2019 that the officer should be able to argue that Mckesson didn't exercise reasonable care in leading protesters onto the highway, setting up a police confrontation in which the officer was injured by a thrown concrete block.
