Maplewood police release video after handcuffing children including boy, 10
Maplewood police on Wednesday released body camera video showing officers handcuffing four children between the ages of 10 and 16 while they were investigating a call about gunshots. Police said a 911 caller reported hearing shots Monday evening close to their business on Cope Ave. near Highway 36 and White Bear Avenue, and saw four people on security video. Investigators released that footage earlier this week. The recording starts at 9:26 p.m. On it, four people are seen walking away from the camera into a field. As they head out of the frame, three gunshots are heard several seconds apart, but it’s not clear if those shots came from anyone in the group.
