 and you wonder why we complain about out of control cops;


Lonoke, AR — Family and friends of 17-year-old Hunter Brittain have been protesting nearly a week and demanding answers from police after an officer shot and killed him as he worked on his truck. So far, the police have remained tight-lipped and have refused to release any details. Brittain’s friend, however, who was with him the morning he was killed, is speaking up — and his words describe what appears to be a blatant act of murder.

On the morning he was killed, Brittain and his friend Jordan King, 16, were working on his truck’s transmission so Brittain could drive to work later that morning. Brittain’s boss, Scott Hundley, who owns Hundley Construction, confirmed to KATV that he spoke with Brittain the night before to line up a ride to work if Brittain couldn’t get his truck fixed.

“I was checking with him on his truck,” Hundley said. “[He was] sending me pictures of his truck at the shop. He says he’s been working on this truck but he’s trying to make it.”

But thanks to Lonoke County sheriff’s Sgt. Michael Davis, Brittain would not make it to work the next morning. And, according to King, it’s because Davis murdered him.

King spoke to KATV off camera and detailed how the situation unfolded. He told reporters that he and Brittain had worked through the night to fix Brittain’s truck and after they finally got it running they took it on a test drive around 3:00 a.m.

According to King, while on their test drive, Davis pulled them over about a mile from the shop where Brittain was working on his truck. The shop, Mahoney’s Body Shop, according to King is owned by a friend of their family and they had permission to be there to fix Brittain’s truck.

King said Davis pulled them over on Arkansas Highway 89 and within just a few minutes, Brittain would be killed...........read and watch more......
