Community Seeks Answers in Police Teen Killing
October 13th, 2009
The death of a 15-year-old boy in Champagne, IL is causing community leaders to ask if the Champaign Police Department is targeting young black males.
Kiwane Carrington was killed Friday after an altercation with police after a neighbor called 911 to report a possible robbery. Carrington and another teen got into a scuffle with officers that resulted in Carrington being shot and killed. The name of the other boy involved is being withheld since he is in juvenile hall.
An officer involved in the incident was injured during the scuffle.
Debra Thomas, the owner of the home in question said Carrington has permission to be in the home. She took Carrington in after his mother died of cancer.
The Illinois State Police is investigating the incident. View the family press conference here
