Title:
Did Minneapolis Cops Cover Up Killing of Unarmed Teen? (You Decide)
Description:
MINNEAPOLIS - Whenever a police officer uses deadly force, his actions will be examined in second by second detail. A Minneapolis policeman who shot and killed a teenager named Fong Lee is under that microscope right now. The FOX 9 investigators sat down with an expert to review this highly charged case. Trish Van Pilsum has more. Minneapolis Police Chief Tim Dolan issued a statement Monday, saying his officers never planted a gun on the body of Lee, a teenager shot by a Minneapolis officer in 2006. Fong Lee was shot in 2006 by a Minneapolis police officer, who claimed the 19-year-old pointed a gun at him. Lee was shot nine times. The gun was found several feet from Fong Lee's body. It did not contain a single fingerprint or any of Lee's DNA. "We believe all along that Fong did not have a gun and to this day we still believe it," Lee's sister, Shoua, said. Family members sued in 2007, with the wrongful death trial is set for May 1. Statement from Chief Dolan "We take all allegations of police misconduct very seriously. We want our community to be able to trust that its officers will protect with courage and serve with compassion. Thats why we want to be absolutely clear: no officer ever planted evidence in this case and we look forward to proving that in court. While no officer wants to take another life, two internal department investigations, as well as an independent grand jury, have ruled that the death of Fong Lee was a case of justifiable homicide.
