This is Tekle Sundberg. Minneapolis Police Department killed this smart, loving & artistic 20-year-old after an hours-long standoff while he was experiencing a mental health crisis. We need ANSWERS from MPD as to why Tekle's mental health crisis became a death sentence!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Sundberg was shot and killed by the Minneapolis Police Department after he shot at a single mother, her two children, and the police officers who responded to the scene.

Minneapolis Police Department officers gave their PROMISE to Tekle Sundberg's parents that their son's mental health crisis would NOT end in a shooting… Still, the officers denied Tekle's dad's pleas to talk to him during the hours-long standoff & ultimately fatally shot Tekle.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed my Emmett Till #AntilynchingAct by a vote of 422–3!
This bill will ensure that the full force of the federal government is ALWAYS brought to bear on individuals who commit the monstrous act of lynching.
Now, on to the Senate!

US Rep. Ilhan Omar introduced the Amir Locke End Deadly No-Knock Warrants Act to restrict the use of such warrants nationwide! We must support this legislation to honor the countless lives — including Amir Locke & Breonna Taylor — ended by police violence! kare11.com/amp/article/news/…
