“The suspect rammed into the marshals’ car and then displayed a weapon”

Now why did they shoot that young innocent aspiring rapper?

Reflexive violent tribalism of the African hive-mind.

Racism. There. I said the magic word. That proves it was premeditated murder. Try and then convict.

“Strickland said that multiple police cars were also vandalized, a concrete wall outside a business was torn down and windows were broken out at a local fire station.”

Taxpayers need to stop replacing these things; locals aren’t paying for them anyway.

Have John Dean show up and testify that he’s not a fact witness, but the police are obviously worse than Nixon and engaged in a comparable coverup.

Do NOT follow link to WAPO. It has a pay wall.

There's a talk show host in Boston named Howie Carr who,when talking about a hood rat who ran afoul of the law,plays one of his "stock" sound clips.The clip is about 5 seconds long and it's a woman who sounds a lot like "Louise Jefferson" (from the TV show) saying "he's a good boy...a *very* good boy".

I wish I could find it to post it here.

Here's a link to a source not behind a paywall.

"A driver wanted on multiple felony warrants attempted to ram law enforcement vehicles when officers with a regional U.S. Marshals Service fugitive task force attempted to arrest him in Memphis' Frayser community about 7 p.m., Tennessee Bureau of Investigation public information officer Keli McAlister said. The man, who has not been publicly identified, then got of the vehicle with a weapon, McAlister said."

(Snip)

"Around 25 officers among all agencies that responded were injured, Memphis Police Director Michael Rallings said at a news conference, although he said most were minor injuries."

It’s hit or miss sometimes on paywall sites.

Maybe it depends on from you access the site. I am in SC formerly from the N.E. and whenever I hit a link to their site the white screen appears after 5 seconds or so.
