Shem Walker, of Clinton Hill, in New York, died in a controversial incident with an undercover cop. The officer was on the stoop of Walker’s home. Walker told him to leave his stoop. A scuffle ensued and the Walker ended up fatally shot.

The police officers’ accounts of the shooting and Walker’s relatives’ relation of the incident differed. The police and a witness said the law enforcement officer identified himself as a policeman while the relatives denied hearing this.

A stoop is a small raised platform, at the entrance of a house. A stoop is similar to a small porch.
