NAACP Calls for Probe in Death of Rashaad Randle - Police Ran him Over
At a community meeting Thursday night, the state's chapter of the NAACP called for York County's District Attorney's Office to offer a thorough and public investigation of the police chase that ended with the death of a York teen two weeks ago. Pennsylvania NAACP President, Burrell A. Brown, an attorney in Clairton, told a group of about 25 residents and law enforcement officers that there needs to be an objective examination of what went on in the early morning hours Aug. 27 when State Police Trooper Sean Taylor tried stopping Rashaad Randle for speeding while patrolling the area of South Pine and Maple streets in York. The entire pursuit was caught on videotape, but state police won't release the video. That day, Taylor activated his lights to make the stop and Randle slowed to almost a complete stop and then accelerated repeatedly, state police has said. After a six-minute pursuit, Randle, 17, stopped suddenly and got out of the car he was driving. Taylor, who had been chasing him, hit and killed Randle.
