A cop shot a teen in the Mcdonald’s parking lot

A New Minneapolis Police Officer Charged with a Criminal Offender for the Decay of a 16-Year-old Shoplifter

Fairfax County police announced that the police officer in Virginia had been terminated and was being investigated for the killing of a suspected shoplifter.

The SAPD said in a video statement the officer was handling an unrelated disturbance call at the McDonald’s Sunday night when he saw a car he believed had evaded police the previous day and called for backup.

In the body camera video released by police, the officer opens the door and ordered the driver out of the car. The startled teen who was eating in the driver’s seat put the car in reverse and backed up.

Two shots can be heard in the video as the officer yells, “Get on the ground.” One officer tells the other to stop reaching.

Police said that the teen remained hospitalized as of Wednesday and had been charged with attacking the officer who had claimed he was hit by the door of the car as he backed up.

The policeshooting of a teenager will be looked into by the Bexar County District Attorney’s Civil Rights Division, who will review the charges against the teen.

A former Minneapolis police officer is accused of attacking a man during a civil unrest after the death of George Floyd.

An expert use-of-force review of the case materials concluded that then-Officer Stetson’s use of force was not in line with the values of the police force.

The complaint did not list an attorney for Stetson, and city attorneys who represented him in the federal lawsuit did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment. The Minneapolis Police Department had no comment on the matter.

A Louisiana State Police Officer Charged with a Domestic Violence Associated with the Stallings, a Black Man in a Baton Rouge Apartment

Stallings thought he had been hit by a live round and was unaware it was police officers who fired at him, according to the complaint. He fired at the officers, even though no one was hurt. Stallings believed he was being attacked by civilians and fired in self-defense, his attorney has told CNN.

An external review of the incident by a former law enforcement officer concluded that Stetson’s actions “violated the most basic norms of policing,” the complaint says.

Mr. Stallings and I only found out about the charge yesterday. We are still reviewing the complaint and do not expect to have further comment at this time,” Eric Rice, an attorney for Stallings, said Thursday.

The capital of Louisiana is Baton Rouge. A white Louisiana police officer was arrested Thursday for fatally shooting an unarmed Black man who was trying to flee police responding to a domestic disturbance call earlier this month, authorities said.

State troopers reviewed evidence from officers’ body-worn cameras and found that Shreveport policeman Alexander Tyler, 23, was responsible for the death of a man.

Audio from the initial call and body camera footage of the fatal encounter were released by the Louisiana State Police.

Shreveport police were called to a domestic violence situation around 10:50 p.m. on February 3. In the 911 call, a person who identified herself as Bagley’s wife said her husband was “loaded on something” and threatening her and her daughter.

Tyler and another unidentified officer arrived at the apartment, where Bagley opened the door holding a glass bottle with brown liquid. Bagley said that he had to put away his dog, walked to the back of the apartment onto a balcony, jumped to the ground outside and ran. The officers then began chasing him.

“Upon rounding a corner of the building, Officer Tyler observed Mr. Bagley and fired one shot from his service weapon, which struck Mr. Bagley in the chest,” Col. Lamar Davis, the superintendent of Louisiana State Police, said at a news conference earlier this month.

After the shooting, Tyler made “multiple statements claiming the suspect came toward him and he could not see his hands,” according to court documents by state police. There was no evidence to suggest that there were weapons in Bagley’s possession.

Tyler, who has been with the police department since May 2021, is currently on paid administrative leave, Shreveport Police Chief Wayne Smith said Thursday. Smith said, to his knowledge, Tyler had been involved in one policy violation in which there was “violence to a suspect” but did not elaborate further.

It was not immediately clear if Tyler had hired a lawyer to speak on his behalf, but he was released on bond on Thursday afternoon. Up to five years in prison is the maximum punishment for a negligent homicide charge in Louisiana.

“The lethal force used against Mr. Bagley was unjustified, unreasonable, excessive, and in violation of Mr. Bagley’s rights under the United States Constitution and the laws of the State of Louisiana,” the lawsuit said, which was filed by Bagley’s wife, mother and stepdaughter.

Ronald Haley, a Louisiana attorney, has represented the families of other high-profile clients, such as the family of Ronald Greene, a black man who died in state police custody in north Louisiana.

During a Thursday afternoon press conference with some of Bagley’s relatives, Haley said the fact that Bagley fled from police should not equate to a “death sentence.”

“Flight does not mean shoot to kill,” Haley said. Flight doesn’t mean you are the judge, jury and executioner. That was what happened in this case … and it is an incident that we see far too often in the state. It’s an incident that we see far too often around this country.”

The news conference was held in hopes that the death of his brother would mean something. Louisiana has had multiple high-profile fatal officer-involved shootings — including the ones involving Greene and Alton Sterling, a Black man who was shot and killed by an officer outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge after being wrestled to the ground.

The Case of Timothy Johnson, 37, who was killed in February 22, 2003, is Not a Sergeant-Related-Operator in Virginia

“I appreciate everybody’s condolences and prayers but none of that compares to the pain that I’m feeling, the pain that my mom is feeling. … That’s going to linger for a while, for a long time,” Sudds said.

Officers suspected the man who was killed, Timothy Johnson, 37, had stolen items from a Tysons Corner shopping center February 22, Chief Kevin Davis told reporters.

The police officer and sergeant were both employed by the department for years and discharged their firearms.

The police department does not see the officer’s actions as being in line with their expectations. He will no longer be a police officer in Fairfax County.

In a statement, Kershner said, “During the incident on February 22, Shifflett deployed his firearm after a fleeing suspect turned on him, refused all commands to show his hands and get on the ground, and began digging into his waist band, looking as if he were drawing a gun from under his baggy pants in order to kill Sergeant Shifflett,” though alleged commands to show his hands are not clearly audible in the footage released by police. In the dark and shaky bodycam footage, it is difficult to see Johnson and any movements he made.

Two pairs of sunglasses were recovered from the scene, and Johnson was not in danger, according to Davis. Police believe that Johnson was seen removing sunglasses from a sales rack in a video released last month.

Bodycam footage released by police shows the officers chasing the suspect through the shopping mall and a parking garage, into a grassy, wooded area of the mall property while shouting verbal commands.

Later in the video, officers are seen talking to each other with one officer saying, “He didn’t get any rounds off. I am not sure if he is armed. He was reaching in his waistband to make sure he could see your hands.

Timothy Descano, a prosecutor in Fairfax County, charged with shoplifting, the police commissioner said in an interview

Steve Descano, the prosecutor for Fairfax County, told CNN that he expects to make a decision in the next few weeks.

“Timothy was unarmed and shoplifting,” his mother, Melissa Johnson told the station earlier this month. The news played out with a judge, jury and an execution-style murder.

Kershner defended the client saying that a police officer shouldn’t have to be shot in order to protect himself or others.
