Video shows confrontation between Black Panthers group and police
Group says it's being harassed; MPD says it arrested man with outstanding bench warrant
MILWAUKEE —
Members of a Black Panthers group that has been seen openly carrying firearms in the streets of Milwaukee at least twice in recent weeks says its constitutional rights were violated after a confrontation with police.
The confrontation was captured on smartphone video outside a store at 27th Street and Fond du Lac Avenue.
Members of the group said they were openly carrying firearms legally and were harassed by police during a food distribution program.
In response, the Milwaukee Police Department issued a statement, saying, "Milwaukee police responded to a subject with a gun call. Officers monitored a group of armed demonstrators and encountered a subject who was unsafely handling a firearm."
Police said it turned out the man was wanted on an outstanding bench warrant, and they arrested him.
Police took one shotgun, and the group is crying foul.
"Weapons were taken illegally, one of which was returned," said Vaun Mayes, of the Revolutionary Black Panther Party.
"Our mission with the Revolutionary Black Panther Party is simple. It's to help feed, clothe, train, shelter and defend our people. And we have the right to do that without any interruption, without any harassment, without any terrorism," said Jamal Canon, of the Revolutionary Black Panther Party.
"Because we open carry, it does not mean we are looking for a fight. We are peaceful unless we need to be otherwise," Mayes said.
The group also said an officer struck a 10-year-old girl with his elbow.
Police said they reached out to the family of the injured girl, and the family hasn't responded.
Milwaukee police said the shotgun that was seized was inventoried for safekeeping.
The Revolutionary Black Panthers voiced their complaints Thursday outside Milwaukee Police District 3 station.
Revolutionary Black Panther Party Threaten $400 Million Lawsuit Against Milwaukee
The city of Milwaukee was threatened today with a lawsuit seeking damages running into nine figures.
The threat comes from the Revolutionary Black Panther Party.
The party said it is suing over what happened Wednesday afternoon at 27th and Fond du Lac.
They are asking for $400 million.
The group said they were handing out food to the community and Milwaukee Police showed up and arrested a man taking his gun.
Police said he was handing it unsafely and found to have an open arrest warrant.
The Black Panthers claim an MPD officer elbowed a 10-year-old girl in the face.
They told us they are planning on filing charges against that officer.
The Revolutionary Black Panther Party plans on suing not only the police department, but also Chief Ed Flynn, the officers involved on Wednesday and the city of Milwaukee.
The suit will allege that their civil and constitutional rights were violated.
We have reached out to Milwaukee Police and Chief Flynn for a response but have not heard back.
The Black Panthers said they are currently pursuing this litigation.
They have not said when they'll actually file the paperwork.
The attorneys for Joe Mixon released a surveillance video Friday that shows the Oklahoma star running back punching a female student in 2014.
The video shows Mixon punching Amelia Molitor, fracturing four bones in her face, during an altercation at a sandwich shop near Oklahoma's campus. He was charged with a misdemeanor at the time of the incident, and the university suspended him for the entire 2014 season.
The video was released after the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters sued for its access, prompting the Oklahoma Supreme Court to rule earlier this month that the city of Norman should release it. Norman had until Dec. 26 to either release the video or file an appeal.
Mixon's attorneys, however, said the running back asked that they make public the video before the city's deadline.
The university issued a statement Friday night, shortly after the video was released:
"University officials were made aware of the content of the video prior to taking action with respect to Joe Mixon [in 2014]," the school said. "Based on that information, the university immediately suspended and removed Mr. Mixon from the football team for one year, during which high standards of conduct were expected and maintained. It was made clear to Mr. Mixon at the time of his suspension that violence against women will not go unpunished at the university. Coach [Bob] Stoops has been proactive in presenting training for his team aimed at preventing such behavior in the future. Sensitivity training in the area of violence has been intensified and best practices will continue to be implemented. Mr. Mixon has apologized for his actions and the university hopes that it is an indication that he has learned from his mistakes. We are an educational institution where we hope young people will learn from their mistakes and chart a better future course."
Mixon issued a formal apology last month but also suggested that racial slurs were hurled at him, which he says initiated the incident.
Soulja Boy recently sat down with VladTV to detail what happened when several people broke into his Atlanta mansion following the release of his second album.
He talks about shooting one of the men, even after realizing that he knew him.
"I'm in the studio listening to some beats. All I hear is [a loud noise]. I instantly stopped the music. My partner say 'Who the f*ck in this crib?' Arab passed me the pistol. I look through the door. I see like 3 or 4 n!ggas running through the crib ... all black masks on," Soulja says. "One n!gga run to the front door. I hop out and start shooting. Shot the n!gga. All the n!ggas run out the door. This n!gga [I shot] on the floor. Walked up to this n!gga, take his mask off his head. Looked at him and saw who it was. I'm like, 'Damn.' Shot his a$$ again. He screaming and sh!t. I knew who it was."
