Germany Vows Full Investigation After Police Shoot Knife-Wielding Black Teen Dead

BERLIN (AP) – A top security official in Germany vowed Thursday to fully investigate the fatal police shooting of a 16-year-old Senegalese boy that has sparked a debate about excessive force by the country’s law enforcement officers.
The interior minister of North Rhine-Westphalia state, Herbert Reul, said the killing of the teenager in the city of Dortmund on Monday “will be cleared up 100 percent,” German news agency DPA quoted him as saying. Africans, especially Mohammedan welfare seekers, shouldn’t come to Germany waving knives around, especially when uninvited and living at someone else’s expense.
