COLUMBUS OHIO — At a news conference on Tuesday, the Columbus Police Department released body camera footage which showed the moment the 16-year-old was killed. They said officers were responding to a 911 call, that the 16-year-old made herself, in which a member of the public reported a female suspect was trying to stab them and then hung up.
The Telegraph said a group of people gathered shortly after the shooting started shouting “no racist police” and “enough is enough”. A video showed one of the officers yelling back “blue lives matter”.
Police did not reveal the girl’s identity, but Paula Bryant told local 10TV that her daughter was shot dead in the incident on Tuesday afternoon.
Neighbour Ira Graham III told The Washington Post that one police officer on the scene was wearing a “blue lives matter” face mask. “We know police lives matter, because you know why? When police are killed, the person is brought in and justice is served,” Mr Graham said.
