Justice Delayed: Mistrial in Lyoya Shooting Case

The trial of Christopher Schurr, the officer who shot Patrick Lyoya, ended without a verdict; the jury couldn't agree.

Schurr faced a second-degree murder charge for the death of Lyoya, a Congolese immigrant, during a traffic stop in 2022.

Graphic video footage from several sources showed the moments leading up to the shooting and the struggle over a taser.

The mistrial is a setback for Lyoya's family, but they plan to pursue further legal action to seek justice.
