A judge ordered Wallace to undergo a psychiatric evaluation and treatment as far back as 2013.
His family says he was bipolar.
"I do know that he was on a regimen of lithium and that says to me he was under a doctor's care, and that says to me officers who are trained - invisible ink - properly should notice certain things when they arrive at the scene," said family attorney Shaka Johnson.
Meanwhile, dozens of officers were injured by rocks and bricks in clashes with protestors after the shooting.
Some neighbors have said those protestors were not from the neighborhood.
Commissioner Outlaw addressed those concerns.
"Speaking anecdotally - we tend not to like to speak anecdotally - but I will tell you the crowd that was out there on the scene, the residents from that neighborhood those, who witnessed the incident, those were the folks that I interacted with while there. Those were not the same people that we later interacted with once I left that scene. It was a completely different group, and quite frankly, demographics that we saw there and I heard from the community some of the same frustrations expressed as well," Outlaw said. |
