Autopsy released of Mississippi baby killed by police | AP News
- A Mississippi family whose 1-year-old child was killed when police fired into a moving car offered evidence Wednesday that they say challenges the officers’ account of being in danger when one opened fire.
- A preliminary autopsy requested by the family of Kohen Wiley suggested the baby was shot from the side of the car, not the front, civil rights attorney Ben Crump said, disputing officers’ claims that the car was heading toward them.
- Kohen’s mother, who was holding her baby in the passenger seat, says her friend was driving away from the officers.
