Walmart Shooting and Community Response
from Memphis News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A Walmart in Senatobia, Mississippi, reopened after closing amid protests sparked by a fatal police shooting last Sunday. Officers responded to a shoplifting call, attempted to stop a fleeing vehicle, and fired shots — hitting the driver and a one-year-old passenger, Kohen Wiley, who later died. The incident has devastated the community, prompting demonstrations and urgent calls for transparency. The officer is on administrative leave as the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation probes the event. Kohen’s family attorneys demand all body camera and surveillance footage, believing it’s vital to understanding what happened. Mayor acknowledges the community’s grief, while attorneys Ben Crump and Van Turner plan a press conference, including potential independent autopsy. The release of footage is seen as crucial for justice and healing. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
