Singer/rapper Drake has spoken out about the fatal police shooting of Alton Sterling, saying the brutal video had left him feeling “truly scared.” On Tuesday, police in Baton Rouge fatally shot Sterling, who had been selling music outside a convenience store. Witnesses said he had been on the ground and cooperating while shot. The incident triggered major protests and renewed fears of police brutality against young black men. On his Instagram page Wednesday, Drake said it was impossible not to comment on the incident, which made it clear that “the relationship between black and brown communities and law enforcement remains as strained as it was decades ago.”
