Court order blocks release of DPD bodycam footage in June teen shooting near fireworks
A court order has blocked the Detroit Police Department from releasing body camera footage of a June shooting involving an 18-year-old, Alonzo Anthony Lee-Perkins, who was shot by officers after allegedly fleeing. Police stated an officer fired multiple times due to safety concerns, and Lee-Perkins faces charges including carrying a concealed weapon. A temporary court restriction, linked to a legal challenge over a city ordinance requiring bodycam release, prevents disclosure until the order is lifted.
