A month after 13-year-old Andy Lopez was shot and killed by a Sonoma County sheriff's deputy, protesters are again taking to the streets Friday to demand the deputy be charged with his death.

A crowd of from 50 to 60 people have gathered at Santa Rosa City Hall and are expected to march along Mendocino Avenue to the Hall of Justice on Administration Drive.
