Body camera footage released by the City of Akron on Monday shows the April 1 shooting of teenager Tavion Koonce-Williams, who was shot in the hand after a 911 caller reported him to police for holding what was later determined to be a toy gun.
" is now grappling with the trauma of being profiled and having his life flash before his eyes after being shot," Okolo said. "Tavion was shot on the inside of his wrist which clearly indicates his hands were up when he was shot." The Akron Fraternal Order of Police , the union representing Westlake, told Akron ABC affiliate WEWS that this "is an extremely difficult situation for everyone involved. There is always a concern each time an officer is faced with the incredibly challenging, split-second decision to defend himself and others against an armed suspect."
"I was calling because I'm walking my dog and there is a guy walking down the street and he was aiming a gun at people's houses. He pulled it out and was acting like he was going to shoot their houses," the caller said in the audio of the 911 call.
