The Bay is no stranger to bouts with the local police, as Johannes Mehserle was responsible for the death of 23-year-old Oscar Grant. The BART police officer testified that he meant to zap the former butcher at Farmer Joe’s Marketplace with his taser as they were in an Oakland train station. Instead, the officer pulled his .40 caliber handgun and killed the man, which was captured on video, and uploaded to YouTube.
