Ta'Kiya Young's family urges officer's arrest after video shows him killing the pregnant Black woman

Ta’Kiya Young’s family wants the police officer who fatally shot the pregnant Black woman to be charged. Young's relatives released a statement through their lawyer on Friday after viewing police bodycam video of the Aug. 24 shooting. The footage shows an officer at the driver’s side window telling Young that she has been accused of theft and repeatedly demanding that she get out of the car. A second officer is standing in front of the car. Young protests, and the first officer repeats his demand. Young then turns the steering wheel to her right and the car moves toward the officer standing in front of it, who fires his gun through the windshield.
