Mike Koval, the police chief in Madison, Wisconsin, has revealed that the 19-year-old Tony Robinson Jr was killed in a struggle with police. But, Tony’s mother has said that her son had never been a violent person. He has now become another example of the things that are happening all over the United States.
It was the case of another black kid shot by the police for no reason.
Mike Koval has indicated that more than one shot was fired, and the officer concerned had administered CPR, and Tony Robinson was taken to hospital where he died. Mike Koval has also agreed that Tony Robinson was unarmed.
This death comes in the wake of other killings of young unarmed black men by police officers like the death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri and Eric Garner in Staten Island.
Unless such deaths are prevented, the image of the police will keep getting tarnished.
