Toledo was shot in the chest after police say he had a handgun on him. Video of the encounter was released this week.
The plaza at Barclays has taken center stage time and time again, as thousands have flooded outside for many days last summer--following the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
Barricades covered the plaza Friday.
