Michigan Police Hold 5 Unarmed Black Kids At Gunpoint For No Reason

'I do not want to die:' Michigan police hold 5 unarmed black kids at gunpoint in case of mistaken identity

Grand Rapids police chief defended his officers after a video was released of them holding five unarmed boys at gunpoint.

Outraged community leaders in Grand Rapids are demanding reform after five Black youths aged between 12 and 14 years were held at gunpoint — for no justifiable reason — as they walked home from playing basketball. Pressure on the department by The Grand Rapids Press through a Freedom of Information Act request finally forced them to release the body camera footage which is nothing short of horrifying.
