"Questions Surrounding Memphis Police Officer's Death: Friendly Fire and Suspect's Role"

The district attorney's office in Memphis has charged a 17-year-old suspect with 13 counts, including attempted first-degree murder, in the fatal shooting of Officer Joseph McKinney, but not with first-degree murder as evidence suggests McKinney was killed by friendly fire during a shootout. Another individual, Jaylen Lobley, was also killed in the incident, and the 17-year-old suspect remains in the hospital. The Memphis Police Department is mourning McKinney's death and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is looking into the shooting, while the district attorney expressed concern over the release of Lobley despite arguments against it due to his danger to the community.
