LIVE: Here's the latest on protests for Casey Goodson

Information about protests, policing and policy is quickly changing in Columbus, and can be pretty hard to follow when it moves this fast. That's why we're compiling accounts of protest, footage from the scene and context about what's happening in this article with updates as we get them.

The crowd was much smaller Saturday afternoon despite multiple planned protests. About 40 people showed up to protest the killing of Casey Goodson.

However, those weren't the only protesters out. Around noon, a group of "Stop the Steal" protesters — who believe the 2020 election was stolen from President Donald Trump — were assembled in front of the statehouse steps. Some protesters later marched around the Statehouse.

As Black Lives Matter protesters began to arrive, conversations between them and the pro-Trump protesters broke out. Some discussions became heated and some did not, but no physical violence broke out.

As the pro-Trump protesters began packing up, the Black Lives Matter protesters moved away from the entrance of the statehouse and began having speakers.

Many of the speakers were not from Columbus, but said they have been involved in actions many times before.

The crowd size nearly doubled after 2:30 p.m., when the Rally for Accountability and Justice for Casey Goodson Jr. converged with another group of protesters who were trying to raise awareness for medical racism affecting the Somalian community.

Sierra Mason, 22, spoke about community care, her experiences lobbying at the Statehouse and state violence against Black people during the demonstration. The Canton native said what motivates her to organize for justice is her daughter.

"I'm here to make a difference so that my daughter can live a better life and have a better future, because she deserves the same rights as your daughter, as our state senator's daughter," Mason said. "At the end of the day, I'm out here for everyone who doesn't have a voice."

Around 4:30 p.m., the combined group of nearly 80 protesters marched southbound on High Street to the Franklin County Courthouse, signs and subs in hand.

Organizers of the downtown protest said a few words before wrapping up the event shortly before 4 pm.

Some members of the crowd lingered, but most people had dispersed by 4:30.

Here's the full video of the second half of protesting:

Organizers led the crowd down several prominent streets downtown, including Broad Street, High Street and Gay Street before taking over an intersection.

Police presence has been consistent throughout the action. Columbus Division of Police had some police vehicles blocking surrounding streets, but the vehicles moved each time the protesters approached.

Organizers asked protesters with shields to create a barrier around the intersection of Broad and High near the statehouse. Folks in the middle of the intersection led chants and songs with the crowd.

Hundreds of protesters gathered for a planned protest that began at noon against police violence and specifically in response to the killing of Casey Goodson.

Organizers, family members and the family's lawyer spoke at the event, sharing similar messages to what they've been saying in past actions and press appearances: Goodson was murdered, he was legally able to carry guns and often preached gun safety to his family, and he was shot because he was Black.

The protest also included a musical performance from a local musician and a symbolic gesture with keys and Subway sandwiches. According to Goodson's family, he was carrying sandwiches for his family and had put his keys into the door when he was shot. Organizers had members of the crowd hold up the sandwich and the keys.

"A subway sandwich and keys cost him his life," organizer Hana Abdur-Rahim said before asking for a moment of silence.

Here's the full video of the first couple hours of the event:

Protesters continued on High Street, occasionally veering onto intersecting streets, before going back to High.

Near High and Fulton, officers from the Franklin County Sheriff's Office stood near the street. Protesters began questioning and yelling at the officers as the crowd approached. Only one officer responded to protesters before another officer stepped in and stopped him. None of the officers on the street had badge numbers clear.

The crowd continued north on High to the statehouse. Once most of the protesters had arrived to the statehouse, a crowd circled several people who began painting the street with the words "Justice For Casey."

Later in the night, protesters marched to Columbus Police headquarters on Marconi Boulevard. The crowd circled around the entrance, and officers inside began walking closer to the doors. However, officers did not come within 10 feet of the door.

Less than a dozen protesters crowded around the entrance, but most of the crowd remained several feet away. At a few points, some protesters hit the glass walls of the entrance, but soon after, others in the crowd would call for peace. Protesters — from leaders to those in the crowd — called for a peaceful demonstration several times throughout the night.

Here's the video of the second half of the protest.
