The father stated that the Detroit Police first sent percussion grenades into the house, one of them hitting his daughter in the head. The aunt of the deceased also came on the air stating the same but added that the little girl caught on fire. Both said the Detroit Police busted in the door and discharged weapons.
Initial media reports are portraying this situation as an accident. Though I don’t think the police would intentionally kill an innocent 7 year old, this catastrophe raises some issues:
1) Was it incumbent on the Detroit Police to execute a raid at a private residency at 12:40 am?
2) Why were percussion grenades detonated in a home with women and children who were not suspects?
3) Was the crew of 48 Hours television show with the Detroit Police, and if so, was the raid staged during the 48 hour time period for television purposes, not public safety first?
