Just days after the Akron Police Department released body camera footage that shows an officer shooting 15-year-old Tavion Koonce-Williams during an incident back on April 1, the teen’s family will host a press conference to address the situation today. DETAILS OF THE AKRON POLICE SHOOTING The situation began after police say somebody called to report seeing a male pointing a gun at houses in the area of Tonawanda and Newton. A responding officer then spotted the teen near the intersection of Brittain Road and Ottawa Avenue. When getting out of his vehicle at the scene, body camera footage shows the officer asking the teen this question: “Can I see your hands real quick?” Then you hear a gunshot. Police said the teen was struck in the hand. Video shows the teen repeatedly shouts, “It’s fake! It’s fake!” Once on the ground with police around him, you can hear him saying, "It's a fake gun, I promise." He was taken to the hospital with a non-life threatening injury. After the shooting, Akron police said officers recovered a fake gun the teen allegedly had in his possession at the time of the incident. “The facsimile firearm was photographed, secured, and later turned over to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations, which will conduct an independent investigation," according to the Akron Police Department.
