Michigan: Mainstream Media Pushes False Narrative about Police Shooting

Patrick Lyoya
Grand Rapids, Michigan: The mainstream media coverage of the police shooting that killed suspect Patrick Lyoya, a 26-year old black refugee from the Congo, is designed to antagonize the public instead of presenting the facts of the case. Mr. Lyoya had a criminal record that includes a conviction for a violent crime against a pregnant woman, an arrest for theft of a vehicle that was dismissed, and a DUI. The license plate on Lyoya’s car did not belong to the car he was driving, and it may possibly be a stolen vehicle. The investigation is incomplete at this time. The officer physically tried to arrest Lyoya after he refused to show his license and tried to leave the scene. The officer tackled Lyoya after he resisted and the two struggled. The officer tried use the taser when Lyoya grabbed it and another struggle ensued. The officer then shot Lyoya in the back of the head with his pistol. CNN neglected to inform that Lyoya grabbed the weapon.

The lethal shot was not a response to a traffic infraction, as presented by the media, but was a reaction to Lyoya fighting for control over the officer’s taser weapon that could have caused death or great bodily injury to the officer.

BLM and far-left protesters blocked the street in Grand Rapids and threatened a driver with a gun.

The GRPD officer was in primary control over suspect sideways on ground, who grabbed (reflexively?) at the officer’s taser while being used. “Non-lethal” force SHOULD have been resorted to by officer who could not reasonably be considered himself in a mortal threat situation. A properly trained cop would have incapacitated suspect without executing him by pistol shot to back of the head. This was a virtual total reversal of Travon Martin/George Zimmerman Florida case. The really unfortunate part here is it gives arguably legitimate grievance to BLM/Antifa anarchist crowd. Grand Rapids had a problem with them in 2020. The state… Read more »
