Wrongful death suit.
It looks like the jury took about an hour and a half to decide in favor of the City Of St. Petersburg, in the lawsuit filed by the family of TyRon Lewis. Lewis was shot by a police officer, Jim Knight, when he refused to roll down the window of his car in 1996 (the car did turn out to be stolen.) According to reports. Lewis also drove the car into officer Knight, and did have an outstanding warrant against him.
It looks as though there will be a scholarship set up for the mans son Tyron Lewis II.
Local NAACP president Darryl Rouson is continuing to ask for peace in the community after a riot Wednesday night. in which about a dozen people were arrested.
