A Michigan prosecutor has announced that he will not pursue a second trial against a police officer who fatally shot a Black man in the back of the head during a traffic stop. The decision comes two weeks after a trial ended without a unanimous verdict. Prosecutor Chris Becker said he doubted a second jury would come up with a different result, citing the community’s division on the issue.

“I just don’t see a place where we get 12 people to agree. This has split the community,” Becker said. The officer, Christopher Schurr, claimed self-defense, saying he feared for his life and shot Patrick Lyoya because he had control of his Taser.

The jury gave up on May 8 after four days of deliberations, with post-trial interviews suggesting as many as 10 of the 12 jurors wanted to acquit Schurr. Lyoya’s family and civil rights activists are likely to be upset by the decision.

“This is not a verdict nor the outcome the Lyoya family sought,” said Ven Johnson, the family’s attorney. Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand acknowledged the pain and frustration the decision would cause, saying “these feelings are valid and must be acknowledged.” A lawsuit alleging excessive force is pending.
