Thousands gather in Phoenix church to express frustration at police who pulled guns on family:
The video, taken by a bystander, prompted apologies from Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams and Mayor Kate Gallego over the actions of the officers, according to the Republic. At the church event on Tuesday night, Williams and Gallego sat alongside other officials and listened to community members express their fury and fear.
Ames said Monday that he feared his family would be “executed” by the officers, according to NBC News. He and his fiancée both said they’re grateful that the bystander took a video of the May 29 incident. The couple said the officers should be fired. “It feels like it’s a half apology; the officers are still working,” Ames said. “It just basically a slap in the face. It’s like putting some lemon juice on an open wound. It’s hurting us even more that they’re still working; nothing is being done.”
