N'deye Mareame Sarr (or Farr) was a German citizen of Senegalese background who was shot dead by a police officer in the town of Aschaffenburg in 2001.

Killing On 14 July 2001, N'deye Mareame Sarr went to her ex-husband's house in Aschaffenburg to look for the two year old child they were bringing up together. According to the police report, she forced her way into the house and when she refused to leave, her ex-husband called the police. When two police officers arrived, she allegedly attacked one officer with a knife and was subsequently shot by the other in the upper body. She then died of her injuries.

Ousman Sey
Ousman Sey was a 45-year-old man from Gambia living in the Nordstadt district of Dortmund in Germany. On 7 July 2012, Ousman Sey began to feel pains in his chest at his house in Dortmund, Germany. He called the emergency services and they told him he did not need to go to hospital. Becoming agitated, he broke a window in his apartment, causing a neighbour to call the police. When the police arrived, he complained about his chest pains; paramedics again said he did not need to go to hospital. He was then arrested and detained. He later died in police custody. Sey's death caused controversy since questions were immediately raised about why a man complaining of chest pain was not taken more seriously. A demonstration was organised in Dortmund and his family suggested there were racist motives for not helping Sey. The police denied racism was part of their decision-making but links were drawn by protestors to other deaths in police custody suspected to be racially motivated such as thos ...

People Shot Dead By Law Enforcement Officers In Germany
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
