PHOTO (UPI): A thin man (Lonnie Smith) in a manual wheelchair grabs the vertical metal bars of the police barricade with his strong right hand. He is wearing a hoodie, jeans and sneakers and is looking down. Behind him you can see two uniformed police officers, and another man who has a button of some kind on his jacket.

Caption reads: WHEELCHAIR BOUND Lonnie
