Teen killed by police in New York laid to rest
UTICA, N.Y. (AP) — A 13-year-old boy shot to death by police in upstate New York after he pointed what turned out to be a BB gun at officers has been laid to rest. Hundreds of mourners came out Saturday for the funeral of Nyah Mway in Utica. A burial ceremony was then held at a local cemetery. Mway was killed June 28 after Utica police say he ran from officers after being stopped on the street. The state attorney general’s office is investigating the shooting. Community members say they’ll hold a march next weekend to demand justice for Mway.
