Girl Shot by Detroit Police, Lawsuit Filed

By Edward Bills

ADVERTISEMENTS

A lawsuit has been filed against the Detroit Police Department over the fatal shooting of a 7-year-old girl and an alleged police attempt to cover up the facts of the case. On May 16, Aiyana Stanley-Jones was shot in the neck during a police raid of an apartment complex. According to the lawsuit, police officers tossed a flash grenade into the Jones home and then began firing bullets into the house from the outside, one of the hitting Aiyana in the neck. Police officers claim that the shooting happened once they were inside, and resulted from someone in the home attacking one of the officers. The suit accuses the police and city of civil rights violations and conspiracy to cover up the truth and is seeking more than $75,000 in damages.
