Austin police fatally shoot Black teen
Austin police are investigating the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Anthoneil Williams II, who was unarmed when officers responded to a community park after a 911 call reporting a youth with a gun. Body camera footage shows Williams lifting his shirt and reaching toward his waistband before appearing to point a weapon at officers, who then fired multiple rounds, resulting in his death. The police have indicated that evidence suggests this was a "suicide by police," and the incident is under active investigation, with officers placed on administrative leave. The event has sparked community outrage and renewed calls for improved mental health support and police accountability.
