Hundreds gather to remember slain Ramapough man

Monday, April 2, 2007  

Hundreds gathered on Sunday on the one-year anniversary of the shooting death of Emil Mann, a member of the Ramapough Lenape Indian Nation of New Jersey.

The gathering started at the tribe's community center. Tribal members and their supporters then walked to the site of Mann's shooting at the hands of a state parks police officer.

After a lengthy investigation, officer Chad Walder was charged last week with a reckless manslaughter for Mann's death. Mann would have turned 46 today.
