Atty: Video shows police fired into Detroit home

By COREY WILLIAMS (AP) ? 37 minutes ago
DETROIT ? An attorney for the family of a 7-year-old girl slain during a weekend raid at their Detroit home says video footage contradicts the police department's version of events.

Geoffrey Fieger (FY-gur) said Monday that the video shows police fired into the home at least once after lobbing a flash grenade through a window.

He says that contradicts the police department's explanation that an officer's gun fired during a confrontation with a resident inside the home.

Seven-year-old Aiyana Jones was shot in the neck and died.

Fieger says he viewed three to four minutes of footage but declined to say who showed it to him.

Police are trying to obtain footage from an A&E camera crew that was at the raid.
An A&E spokesman declined to comment.
