Diamond Lavish Reynolds the girlfriend of Philando Castile immediately live streamed the moments on Facebook just after the shootout.
However, Facebook was quick enough to remove the video as soon as the video started going viral.
The video was uploaded on Youtube and twitter immediately.
Philando Castile slumped in his seat and covered with blood.
After that, Diamond Lavish Reynolds was handcuffed and forced to sit in the police vehicle.
Philando Castile was taken to the hospital but died shortly after arriving the hospital.
Facebook in defence said Were very sorry that the video was temporarily inaccessible.
My thoughts are also with all members of the Facebook community who are deeply troubled by these events.
