Friday, May 19, 6-9pm, Douglas Elementary School [now closed] yard, 43 S. Douglass St. [immediately west of the intersection of S. 18th St. and Madison Ave.]

The Grand Jury will be convening this Friday [May 18] to decide whether or not the officer who had killed Tyre King on September 14 should have to face an open trial. We are not expecting justice. Prosecutor Ron O’Brien has never held the Columbus Police Department accountable for a lethal shooting so we are expecting the system to fail the community once again.

We will gather on Friday evening [May 18] in the school yard of Douglas Elementary School near the site where Tyre’s life was lost. We are mourning the tragic loss of life and the lack of justice for him and for all the victims of police violence in Columbus.

Join us and find out ways you can join the movement to fight for police accountability and real investments in the programs that actually keep communities safe.

Central Seventh-day Adventist Church [80 S. 18th St.] will be hosting the family during the time following the announcement.
