A viral TikTok video has officials from Lansing, Michigan apologizing to 12-year-old Tashawn Bernard's family after making the wrong arrest.
"Community relations is a top priority for us as a department, from top-down," the department wrote."Our hope is we can put this unfortunate case of 'wrong place, wrong time' behind us and continue to represent the community that we serve.""The officers of the Lansing Police Department are working very hard to address the recent car thefts plaguing our city.
"As the Chief of Police, I want to apologize that this incident had such an effect on this young man and his family. I’m asking for the community to consider all the facts of the situation before making a judgment. The relationship with our community has been and will continue to be a top priority for the Lansing Police Department.""The Lansing Police Department made a mistake in detaining the wrong person during a vehicle theft investigation," Schor said in the statement.
Attorneys for the family said Tashawn was taking out the trash at his home when he was approached by an officer holding a gun at his side. The boy was put in handcuffs and placed into the back of a police vehicle. "Instead to trying put the incident behind them, police should have apologized to Tashawn and considered how they can make the situation right." the attorneys said.
