HeadlineNov 18, 2024

In Las Vegas, a man was shot dead by a police officer in his own home after he called 911 to report a break-in. Brandon Durham, a 43-year-old Black father and realtor, was with his 15-year-old daughter at the time, who survived the shooting. Durham’s partner spoke out against the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police following the deadly shooting, saying, “What are you looking at? Not the colors of the clothes. You’re looking at the color of the skin, and that’s why he’s dead.”
