Case was covered in news in October 2021 (e.g. here https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/oct/14/cameroon-urges-calm-after-policeman-kills-schoolgirl-in-anglophone-region and here https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/anger-boils-over-cameroon-region-after-gendarme-kills-5-year-old-2021-10-14/). Video may load a bit longer (above 6 minutes).
On 14th of October, quoting The Guardian,
woman driving children to school was ordered by police to stop at a checkpoint.
“The driver didn’t obey. A gendarme opened fire and a schoolgirl was fatally wounded,” he said. “People responded by lynching the gendarme. More than 500 people came out and marched with the body [of the girl] to the governor’s office. He tried to calm people down by promising to punish” those responsible.
Victim was Caro Louise Ndialle, around 5 yo girl (one source claimed 4 yo). News say funeral took place the same day on Catholic cemetery. Incident happened in Buea (Southwest region's capital), which is a hotspot city in region which for previous 4 years was a place of conflict between anglophone separatists and government forces in the French-majority nation. That made some political significance, as people apparently didn't get 'calm down' by officials calling it 'sad and unfortunate incident'.
Some timestamps:
Beginning: girl when alive and dead in car.
1:49: girl body shown, then crowd gathering around.
2:08: WTF moment with naked woman checking the body.
Then the protests/march beginning.
3:08: photos, then start of officer's lynch part. Around 4:00 parts with the beating begin, but there's no any especially brutal moment there.
CCGMI stands for Commandement Central des Groupements Mobiles d'Intervention.

True, what the mother did caused more harm. However does it justify firing multiple times into car? Harming the little girl so badly that her brain is on the floor? Literally blowing her head open?
