SUMMARY: A federal lawsuit has been filed following a 2023 officer-involved shooting at a Choctaw High School football game. Two years ago, 16-year-old Cordy Carter was killed in the chaos, with no charges filed. Demetrius Carter, unrelated to the victim, was also shot and injured by Del City police. Carter’s attorney alleges civil rights violations, claiming officers Sean Hope and his partner used excessive force without provocation, possibly influenced by racial bias. The lawsuit names the City of Del City, police officials, and the school district. Key body camera footage remains sealed, and investigations are ongoing amid pending litigation.

SUMMARY: A neighbor’s security camera captured a suspect setting fire to vehicles outside a McLean County deputy’s home, which quickly spread and destroyed the house. The suspect, 28-year-old Austin Garrett Reeves, was previously arrested for burglarizing the same deputy’s home but was released by the Light Horse Police due to tribal membership. The sheriff expressed concern over Reeves targeting law enforcement, noting multiple break-ins leading to the fire. Emergency crews extinguished the blaze, but the deputy’s home was a complete loss. Authorities are investigating prior targets and why charges were declined, with Reeves now in custody at Grady.
