Calls for Release of BodyCam Footage After Police in Georgia Shoot At Car of Teens, Younger Children
Calls for Release of Body-Cam Footage After Police in Georgia Shoot At Car of Teens, Younger Children For Alleged Traffic Violationhttps://www.theroot.com/calls-for-release-of-body-cam-footage-after-police-in-g-1844664793
It’s apparently open season on Black people in America, and that includes our children.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) says it is now investigating a shooting incident in which officers from the Waycross Police Department in Ware County, Georgia fired multiple times at a vehicle of Black children.
According to the GBI report, the officer—who has not been named—observed a traffic violation on Saturday morning and started following the car to obtain its license information.
In that car were five children, ranging from ages 16 to 9 years old, who told News4Jax that they were heading back home after a Walmart run. Shortly after they pulled into their neighborhood, the car was riddled with bullets courtesy of Waycross police officers.
