Officer who shot and killed Black toddler in Mississippi resigns from police force

Hunter Foster, a Senatobia police officer, has resigned following the shooting death of one-year-old Kohen Wiley. The incident occurred on 14 June when Foster fired into a moving vehicle during a Walmart shoplifting call. Although Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch declared the shooting justified, the Senatobia board of aldermen accepted Foster's resignation on 21 October. Foster had been on leave since 16 June, and the Mississippi department of public safety recently released surveillance and body-camera footage.
