MPD guns down innocent black man during no-knock raid.

Bodycam footage has been released of the MPD executing a no-knock raid in the early morning. Police rapidly entered the building unannounced and gunned down a man who had awakened to the sound of intrusion and armed himself with his legally owned firearm.

Amir Locke was killed on the scene. He has no prior criminal record, was a licensed firearm owner in full compliance with the law, and was not named on the warrant for the raid.

Bodycam video contradicts the story told by the city:

Quote:

As members of the press and community groups began to confront Huffman on the perceived disconnect between her statements on Wednesday and what’s seen in the video — especially about how she had originally said SWAT team members “loudly and repeatedly” announced their entry into the apartment — civil rights lawyer and activist Nekima Levy Armstrong, who serves on the mayor’s new Community Safety Workgroup, interrupted the press conference. She walked up to the podium next to Huffman and Frey and accused them of changing the narrative.

“When people voted to re-elect you, Jacob, they wanted to see a new leader … they expected a new beginning. That’s why they gave you authority. That’s what we want to see, not cover-ups, not white washing,” Levy Armstrong said. “Amelia, you want to be the chief — act like it. Don’t cover up.”

Cops murdered a black man who rightly responded to the sounds of an intruder by grabbing a gun.
