Independent Autopsy: Stephon Clark Shot 8 Times in Back
SCIUTTO: Attorneys for the family of Stephon Clark say new autopsy results are raising more questions about how Sacramento police killed the 22-year-old man. The killing set off days of protests. Police killed him in his mother's -- grandmother's backyard after pursuing him over a call that a man was breaking car windows.</s>UNIDENTIFIED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER: Show me your hands. Drop your gun!</s>SCIUTTO: Police said they thought he had a gun. Only a cell phone, however, was found at the scene. Ryan Young joins us from Sacramento with the latest on the results of this new autopsy. Ryan, what does this autopsy show about the number of shots, and how does it line up with the police department's narrative?</s>RYAN YOUNG, CNN REPORTER: Jim, you know that initial police narrative from the Sacramento Police Department, according to the family, is that Stephon Clark was charging toward the officers. Well, the new narrative is different in terms of where the lawyers are coming from. They believe with their pathologists that he was actually shot right here on the side and that turned his body. Then he received six more shots to his back area and then one in the leg. They believe that directly contradicts what the police department has been saying. And of course, we even reached out to the police department to see what they were saying about this. They said, right now, with this investigation ongoing, they're not going to comment, going back to the lawyers. In that room where this news conference was, and the pathologist talked about Stephon Clark, a 22-year-old father of two getting hurt several times, we heard several people in the crowd saying, "murder, murder, murder." We're minutes away from another protest. Protesters have been walking through the streets, sharing their concerns with what's going on in this community. But today, with this new evidence, at least from the family attorney, a lot of people are questioning what the Sacramento Police Department has said over the last few days.</s>SCIUTTO: No question. I understand there's an event scheduled for later tonight that's hosted by Black Lives Matter?</s>YOUNG: Right. So there's going to be several different events over the next two days. This first event today with Black Lives Matter is going to be a connection with the Kings. They're going to go down and talk about ways to enrich children's lives in this area. The Sacramento Kings have definitely been affected by the protests because protesters stepped in front of that NBA arena over the last few days to stop people from going in. Last night was one of the first games they did not block the arena. In fact, the family asked them not to block the arena. There is a game tomorrow. We're told there will be another rally around noon tomorrow here where people will gather once again to have another conversation about this shooting.</s>SCIUTTO: We've seen scenes like that so many times before. Ryan Young, thanks so much for covering the story. Coming up, does the president have a plan for getting U.S. troops out of Syria that no one else knows about, including the Pentagon? He told a crowd in Ohio the troops would be getting out very soon. A defense official says it is not clear exactly what he meant. The latest is next.
