Updated 12:00 p.m.

Madison — Students from University of Wisconsin-Madison and local high schools staged a walkout Monday morning and marched to the state Capitol, where they planned to protest the death of Tony Robinson.

Just before noon, protesters began to enter the Capitol amid chants by organizers, "be peaceful."

Plans for the "All Madison Walk out" were posted on Facebook.

Students walked out of classes at Madison East High School and at least one middle school at 10:30 a.m. University students gathered at Bascom Hall before beginning a march to the Capitol.

Madison chief to shooting victim's family: 'I am sorry'
John Bacon, USA TODAY 2:50 p.m. EDT March 9, 2015




The police chief of Madison, Wis., on Monday apologized in an online blog post to the family of Tony Robinson, the black teen who was fatally shot by a white Madison police officer three days ago.

"Reconciliation cannot begin without my stating 'I am sorry,' and I don't think I can say this enough. I am sorry," Chief Mike Koval wrote. "I hope that, with time, Tony's family and friends can search their hearts to render some measure of forgiveness.

"Certainly, this will not take place soon given the circumstances. It may take some time for this loop to close but I pray that it will, in fact, close."

Koval has been pressing themes of patience and restraint since Robinson, 19, was shot by officer Matt Kenny after Kenny responded to a 911 call. Koval published his blog post as hundreds of chanting protesters rallied at the Wisconsin State Capitol, chanting "no justice, no peace."

The crowd included many students from Madison East High School and the University of Wisconsin. Organizers urged the crowd to be peaceful — and the rally was, local media reported. A series of vigils, marches and protests since the shooting have consistently been nonviolent.

The tragedy began Friday night when Kenny was among officers responding to a 911 call saying someone had been jumping in front of cars. Kenny pursued the suspect to an apartment, heard a commotion inside and went in, Koval has said. Koval said Kenny shot Robinson after Robinson attacked the officer, who suffered undisclosed injuries.............

28. i will not see this one on the "news" tonight

no violence to grab the eye. Just solidarity and youth awakening to what they can and must do. And they need our help and our voices and our feet marching. This should be a multigenerational march. We had such a march in Chicago for the NATO meeting. The difference was the massive police presence.

Gives this old Vietnam War protester hope that the country can change.

I suppose this all depends upon your local station, although the story made USA Today and national coverage there could spur national coverage by one of the broadcast news agencies.
