Cops Were ‘Justified’ In Killing 16-Year-Old Black Teen
The officers who shot and killed a 16-year-old in Mar- ion, Ark., will not be facing charges after state prosecu- tors concluded that their use of force was justified.
“The investigation re- vealed that Marion Police Of- ficers Wesley Smith and Brannon Hinkle were con- fronted with circumstances justifying the use of deadly force the afternoon Aries Clark was shot,” a letter dated Aug. 9 from 2nd Dis- trict Prosecuting Attorney Scott Ellington.
Aries was shot and killed July 25 outside the East Arkansas Youth Services, a facility that caters to at-risk and delinquent youths. He
ARIES CLARK
was struck three times by the officers’ bullets. Officers be- lieved that the teen was armed with a handgun, al- though a report notes that agents only recovered “a solid black 1911 BB pistol from the location where Clark fell
after he was shot.”
In bodycam video of the
incident, officers can be heard pleading with Aries in an attempt to get him to drop the BB pistol and talk to them before they ultimately fired the fatal shots.
