Million Hoodie March (Andrew Dallos/ Twitpic

After more than three weeks of public outcry over the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin by a man some have called a vigilante, the Sanford, Fla., city commissioners passed a "no confidence motion" in the city's police chief.



Commissioners voted 3-2 in a no confidence in the police chief. The three that voted they had no confidence in Police Chief Bill Lee were Mayor Jeff Triplett and Commissioners Velma Williams and Mark McCarty. It's not clear what this motion means for the police chief. McCarty said at the meeting that Police Chief Bill Lee should step down. Commissioner Patty Mahany disagreed with McCarty. They said they wanted wait for all the facts to come in to decide on firing or requiring resignation.

The commissioners are also moving their regular Monday meeting to the 600-seat civic auditorium in anticipation of a large turnout.

Meanwhile, in New York City, several thousand people showed up as part of a "million hoodie march." On-again, off-again livestream here.
