Elijah McClain, a young Black man, died after being stopped by police while walking in the Denver suburb of Aurora because a 911 caller reported a man who seemed “sketchy”. He was put in a chokehold and injected with a large dose of the powerful sedative ketamine two years ago in suburban Denver. Police officers and paramedics pleas in the case expected today.

@Nupe117 this story made me so upset! 😡 people that are making these calls to police without any basis of reasoning to me are the real criminals.
@A_Transparent_Soul I totally agree. Pour soul nothing bothering anyone is now dead because somebody thought he looked "sketchy".
