Excerpt: In the table below are links to lists of people killed by non-military law enforcement officers in 2012, whether in the line of duty or not, and regardless of reason or method. The listing documents the occurrence of a death, making no implications regarding either wrongdoing or justification on the part of the person killed or the officer involved. Killings are arranged by date of incident which caused death. Different death dates are, if known, noted in the description. The lists below are incomplete; the annual average number of justifiable homicides alone is estimated to be near 400. For lists of killings from other years, see List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States.

Protestors renamed it Oscar Grant Plaza after a young man who was fatally shot by Bay Area Rapid Transit Police in 2009. The encampment was cleared out by multiple law enforcement agencies on October 25, 2011. That evening when protesters tried to reclaim the site, clashes between police and protesters resulted in multiple injuries and over 100 arrests. Scott Olsen, an Iraq war veteran, suffered a skull fracture allegedly caused by a police projectile. His injury came to national attention and became a rallying cry for the Occupy movement. The site was reoccupied by protesters the next evening. The November 2 General Strike & Anti-Capitalist March brought thousands of demonstrators to downtown Oakland for a day of action, including a march to the Port of Oakland, which was forced to shut down operations.
