MOTHER OF 2 CHILDREN, PREGNANT WOMAN AND ITS BABY CANNOT BE SAVED…
There is no end to police violence in the USA. On August 24, in Columbus, Ohio, police stopped the car of 21-year-old pregnant Ta’Kiya Young, who is of African descent, in the parking lot of a store for alleged theft.
Young, who the cops repeatedly asked to get out of the vehicle, said, “Why? I’m not going to do that. Are you going to shoot me?” replied in the form.
As Young moved his vehicle, one of the cops shot at the windshield of the vehicle. While Young was injured, the out-of-control vehicle crashed into the wall and stopped. The police broke the window of the vehicle to get the injured woman out. Despite all the interventions, the pregnant woman and the baby in her womb could not be saved.
THE IMAGES HAVE APPEARED
After the reaction, an investigation was launched into the incident, and the police officer who fired his gun was put on administrative leave. The image of the moments when the pregnant woman was shot was shared with the public. The woman’s family said in a statement that the incident was “clearly a criminal act” and “preventable”.
It was learned that the woman, who is the mother of 2 children aged 6 and 3, will give birth in November. (UAV)
