The family of an 11-year-old boy shot by police sued the city of Indianola, Mississippi, as well as the police officers they allege are responsible in a $5 million lawsuit filed in federal court on Tuesday. 

 

Court documents filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi said the boy, Aderrien Murry, was turning the corner of his home's hallway when he was "instantly shot" by Greg Capers, one of the responding officers, after police were called to the family home at about 4 a.m. on May 20 to investigate reports of a domestic disturbance. 

 

Aderrien's mother, Nakala Murry, told CBS News that she gave her cell phone to her son and asked him to call her mother and the police after her daughter's father knocked on the door and "stated he was irate."
