BREAKING: Police and paramedics in Aurora, Colorado, will face charges in the case of Elijah McClain, the young Black man who died in 2019 after he was detained and placed in a chokehold by officers, following 8 months of a grand jury investigation.
Representatives with the city of Aurora, the Aurora Police Department and the police union could not immediately be reached for comment Wednesday.
Three Aurora police officers responded to a report of a suspicious person wearing a mask and waving his arms.Bodycam video later released showed officers ordering McClain to stop. He responded that he was an introvert and to"please respect the boundaries that I am speaking." Demonstrators carry placards as they walk down Sable Boulevard during a rally and march over the death of 23-year-old Elijah McClain in Aurora, Colo. , on June 27, 2020.Authorities said officers applied a carotid control hold on McClain, a type of chokehold meant to restrict blood to the brain to render a person unconscious.
