Webster-Cox filed a lawsuit on Oct. 5 in U.S. District Court against the officer, requesting $400,000 for causing “emotional injury” to the boy.

Kid is in car with dad. Dad is pursued by cops.

Dad FLEES from cops.

Cops hold the kid...treat him carefully.

Pittsfield is right next door to the socialist peoples republic of Ann Arbor. Typical reaction for that area.

Shouldn’t this be the story.

Lawyers should officially change the name of the profession to lottery agent. It would be more accurate.

11 year old black boy? He's probably already a father with a rap sheet at that age. If he could read, Beatrix Potter is not on his reading list. The cop used his best judgment, and the "youngster" probably appeared far older than his calendar years. How many innocents have been killed by "teens", "youths", and "aspiring rappers"?

Is the cop White? BTW, in my travels it is wise to avoid Pittsfield Township...
