SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- A police officer in Seattle, U.S. state of Washington, was recorded laughing about the death of an Indian student being hit and killed by a police car early this year, sparking outrage in the country and internationally.

More than 200 people on Thursday took to the Seattle intersection where 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula was fatally struck in January, calling for accountability for the officer who killed her and for Daniel Auderer's comments about the crash, which some described as "disgusting" and "abhorrent."
