We begin in New York State where police in Utica have now released video footage showing an officer fatally shooting a 13-year-old boy who had pointed a replica handgun at them after fleeing from police. For the latest, we turn to Sydney Sumner with Crime Online. The incident occurred shortly after 10 p.m. Friday in Utica, located about 240 miles northwest of Manhattan. According to police, the young teen, identified as Naya Mwe, and another 13-year-old were stopped by officers in connection with an armed robbery investigation. The two teens matched the description of the suspects and were in the same area at the same time as the robbery. One of the teens was also reportedly walking in the road,

a violation of state traffic laws. Body camera footage released by the police shows an officer informing the boys that they needed to be patted down for weapons. At this point, Naya Mwe ran away, and moments later, he appeared to point a handgun at the pursuing officers. Authorities highlighted the weapon in the video with a red circle to make it clear to viewers. The officers, believing it to be a real firearm, later determined it was a replica of a Glock 17 Gen 5 handgun with a detachable magazine. Despite immediate first aid administered by the officers, Naya Mwe was pronounced dead at Wynn Hospital. Lt. Michael Curley, a police spokesperson, described the replica gun as a

realistic-appearing firearm, complete with Glock markings, detachable magazine, and serial numbers, though it ultimately fired only pellets or BBs. A bystander video posted on Facebook captures the dramatic moment, showing an officer chasing Nya Mwe, tackling him, and punching him as two other officers arrive. As they struggled on the ground, a gunshot rang out and the officers quickly stood up. The officer who fired the shot, identified as Patrick Husney, a six-year veteran, along with officers Bryce Patterson and Andrew Citraniti, have been placed on administrative leave with pay. The chaotic scene depicted in the body camera footage includes officers shouting gun as they pursued Naya Mwe. After tackling and punching him, Husney fired the shot. Initially, officers believed Naya Mwe might have shot himself,

and Patterson was heard saying, I don't know if he shot me. Patterson was not injured. Throughout the incident, bystanders were heard screaming at the officers, with one officer responding, we're trying to save him right now. The second youth was detained in a police vehicle and was not involved in the shooting. In a brief interview following the shooting, Officer Husney stated he fired one round straight towards the ground, unsure if Nya Mwe had fired at the officers. He believed the weapon to be a.22 caliber handgun.

The police department released the body camera footage amid public outcry as the shooting sparked unrest in Utica, a city with a population of 65,000, including a significant number of refugees from Myanmar. Naya Mwe was reported to have been an eighth grader at Utica's Donovan Middle School and a member of the Karen ethnic minority. Thanks, John.
