Lawyers Questions Deadly Muscle Shoals Police Shooting | Sept. 26, 2024 | News 19 at 6 p.m.
SUMMARY: In Muscle Shoals, a deadly officer-involved shooting occurred involving Ronald Parrish, who had dementia. His family contacted police for medical assistance during an erratic episode when he was seen with a steak knife. According to his attorney, Parrish was uncooperative upon officers’ arrival, and despite repeated requests to drop the knife, he charged at them. The police stated that they used a Taser twice but still felt compelled to shoot him. Concerns have emerged about law enforcement’s training regarding mental health issues, as it may contribute to excessive use of force in such situations.
An Attorney for the man killed by Muscle Shoals Police is speaking out.
