Three former colleagues of Grand Rapids police officer Christopher Schurr defended his actions during a traffic stop that led to Patrick Lyoya's death.

A Michigan jury is considering whether a former police officer was justified in fatally shooting a Black man who had taken the officer's Taser and was facedown in a struggle.

Moments after the prosecution rested its case, the defense requested to have the trial dismissed entirely. This request was based on testimony from two out-of-state witnesses for the prosecution, who spoke about former Grand Rapids police officer Christopher Schurr’s use of force during his deadly confrontation with Patrick Lyoya.
