The Reverend Al Sharpton was in Savannah Thursday night - helping raise money for the family of a man shot and killed by police.

He spoke at a fundraiser for 22-year-old David Willis’ three children, one of them unborn.

Willis was fatally shot by officer Kevin Mckoon nearly two weeks ago.

Police say Willis was pulled over for a traffic stop, when he tried to run the officer over.

The Second St. John Missionary Baptist Church  was filled to capacity, an hour before Reverend Al Sharpton arrived.

Organizers say it wasn’t a rally to say who’s wrong or right, but a way to reach out to Willis’ family and heal.
