Ma’Khia Bryant shooting latest updates – Black girl, 16, shot dead by white cop seconds after he saw her holding knife

A BLACK 16-year-old girl was fatally shot by police as Derek Chauvin’s guilty verdict was revealed on Tuesday.

The teen, named by family as Ma’khia Bryant, was killed by a cop in Ohio moments before Chauvin was found guilty of murdering George Floyd.

Graphic bodycam footage of the shooting was last night released by officials.

Cops say they were called to the scene by a person who said someone was trying to stab them at 4.32pm, with officers arriving on scene minutes later at 4.44pm

Video showed two girls arguing before a cop shouted “Get down” and began firing his weapon multiple times at one of them – just seconds after arriving on-scene.

Cops have yet to reveal the victim’s identity – but she was identified by family as 16-year-old Ma’khia Bryant, WBNS reported.
