The family of a bystander who tragically lost his life during a police chase in Minneapolis in 2021 has filed a lawsuit against the city, alleging that dangerous pursuits are more prevalent in areas of the city with predominantly Black residents. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages for the incident that occurred in July 2021.
The accident involved former Minneapolis police officer Brian Cummings, who pleaded guilty to criminal vehicular homicide last year. Cummings was pursuing a suspected car thief when he ran a red light and collided with a vehicle driven by the victim, Leneal Frazier, who sadly passed away at the scene.
