The family of a 27-year-old man shot and killed by Houston police during an attempt to execute an arrest warrant says the officers never identified themselves before they opened fire.
Taft Foley, the attorney for Charion Lockett’s family, says the released police body camera footage of the Feb. 7 shooting supports their belief Lockett feared for his life in the moments before he was killed.
But police say Lockett was the aggressor, firing at officers while running from his car toward his front door.
Attorney Taft Foley spoke with Roland Martin about this disturbing incident during Thursday’s edition of #RMU.
